GitHub: planning & defense
- Contract strategy
- Stay month-to-month since base tier pricing has remained remarkably stable or even dropped (Team plan) over the past decade.
- Architecture defense
- Keep CI/CD pipelines and deployment scripts provider-agnostic using standard containers so repositories can be easily migrated.
Netlify: planning & defense
- Contract strategy
- Stay month-to-month since Netlify frequently restructures plans and historically shifts between flat rates and per-seat pricing.
- Architecture defense
- Keep build configurations, routing rules, and environment variables portable using standard open-source static site generators to enable easy migration to rival hosts.
