Deployment Dependencies DAG

Understanding Deployment Order through DAG Analysis

💡 Learn About Deployment DAGs

DAG structure ensures no circular dependencies - deployment order is always possible

Arrows point from dependent to dependency - follow backwards to find deployment order

Topological sorting produces a safe deployment sequence

Any valid topological sort respects all dependency constraints

📌 Notice how infrastructure components (database, servers) have no dependencies - they deploy first

💡 Applications can only deploy after their dependencies are ready - the graph enforces this constraint

🎯 A deployment cycle would make it impossible to determine order - DAG structure prevents this
