When “Testing in Production” Goes Wrong: Lessons From Cloudflare’s Recent Outages

Web Development | 30 December 2025
In the world of IT and systems engineering, there's a golden rule that everyone learns early on: never experiment directly on your live environment. Changes should be tested, validated, broken, repaired, and verified long before they ever touch anything users depend on. That's why most organizations maintain multiple environments such as Development, Test, and Staging before rolling anything into Production. It is a time-tested safety net designed to protect reliability.

Google’s Latest Experiment Wants to Rethink How We Browse

Web Development | 15 December 2025
