Question
Pre-Production Environment Setup
Hello! We are planning to setup Pre-Production (or Production-Fix) PRPC environment from a backup of the Production PRPC Database. Is this the suggested approach by the product team? If yes, what additional steps need to be performed once the Pre-Production environment is built from the Production backup? Any reference to PDN article or URL will be much appreciated.
Our idea of building the Pre-Production using the above approach is to easily replicate any Production issues for additional troubleshooting purposes.
Thanks!

Hi
A pre-production environment is used for final testing immediately prior to deploying to production.So having the production rules make sense.
However, going forward, instead of deploying the updated rulesets via DB dump from production, make it a practice to migrate the changes from Testing to Staging ( Pre Prod ) before moving them to prod. In that way , you can ensue that pre prod has the same set of rules that prod has.
