Absolutely. Nothing scarier than rebooting the computer or router that’s been running for 10 years.

I also enjoy exercising software blue/green rotation weekly. Even if no code changes, have it roll to the alternate infra on an automated schedule. Is a great habit to get into and helps any engineer sleep better. It also results in providing very accurate downtime recovery numbers - not estimates.
