Not sure if this would help in this particular scenario, but unit and integration testing of operations scripts can save a lot of pain, anguish and $$s too.

It's horrifying how many places treat writing tests for services as critical, but then completely fail to write tests for their operational tooling. Including tools responsible for scaling up and down infrastructure, deleting objects etc.

But if a test fails does it now mean you're bankrupt?

Could do? Not sure what your point is here.
