Using Adobe Managed Services (AMS) for a production instance provides several operational benefits, including the review of code changes on the production branch. Adobe’s AMS includes managed support for code deployment, ensuring that all code updates go through a thorough review process to maintain stability and performance. Adobe will not develop custom components for production (option B) but will support the deployment process through best practices and monitoring.

Key Advantages of Adobe Managed Services:

Automated Code Review and Quality Checks:Adobe performs reviews of code changes before deployment, which helps to identify and mitigate potential issues in production.

Enhanced Stability and Compliance:By managing production environments, Adobe ensures that deployed code meets their standards for security, compliance, and stability.

Scalability and Support:AMS also provides support for scaling and maintaining production environments with minimal downtime.
