I disagree, in a lot of cases a new service would require an update to 1 or 2 stacks only, and only those 2 stacks need deploying.

It is in some cases required to do some version of this as the vendor API support does not allow for proper feedback when an operation is complete so it needs to settle.

Or, building docker images which run each time and take a long time / resources unnecessarily (I believe Pulumi have a fix for some version of this).

If your stacks are deployed via CI/CD, it’s not really a big deal to deploy 10x stacks in sequence, or just.

This may be overkill for a lot of projects but it’s valuable insight from a respected organization / individual.
