Best practices

Tips to help you get the most from Optimize Live

Get the most value out of Optimize Live and minimize unexpected results by following these best practices.

Workload settings

Generate recommendations once daily

A once-daily recommendation schedule is considered a best practice in stable or production environments (this is the default schedule when you roll out Optimize Live). For details about this setting, see Recommendation schedule in the Schedule topic.

Apply recommendations automatically

Before configuring Optimize Live to automatically apply recommendations, you should review and selectively apply the first few recommendations to canary workloads to see what happens. Then, as you trust recommendations more, you can enable them to be applied automatically on more workloads.

When you’re ready to have Optimize Live apply scheduled recommendations automatically, be sure to install the StormForge Applier and configure Optimize Live to deploy recommendations automatically.
