<a name="advrel05-bp01"></a>

 Resiliency evaluations should not be considered a one-time effort, but a continuous part of any workload's lifecycle. 

## Implementation guidance
<a name="implementation-guidance-28"></a>

 Your workload, as well as the environment (both regulatory and partner) in which it operates, is constantly changing. Make resilience a regular part of your feature delivery and operational cadence throughout a workload's lifetime. Create a living document to track evolving processes, expectations, and improvements. Use AWS Gamedays, Well-Architected Framework Reviews, and Support Countdown engagements to improve reliability of advertising workloads. Coordinate with your various advertising partners and stakeholders to perform successful failover testing.
