Same work, two-thirds less of it
Here is what a release week looks like on either side of the switch.
Without Acme
Config lives in three places and drifts apart
Every environment needs a hand-written script
Nobody can say who changed the staging key
Rollbacks mean a call with the one person who knows

One file describes every environment
Preview environments open with the pull request
Every change is attributed and reversible
Rollback is one command, from anyone on call
New engineers deploy on day one
Median setup time across 1,200 teams:
9 minutes
