How to Prevent a Deployment From Running During an Active Database Backup

A release that changes schema or restarts services during backup can affect consistency or backup duration.

Checks to make

Coordinate deployment and backup windows, identify operations that require quiescing or locks, and use pipeline checks to detect active backup jobs. Define what can safely overlap and test the procedure with representative data.
