Abstract

Techniques are described herein that are capable of selectively throttling an implementation of configuration changes in an enterprise. For instance, incremental phases of the implementation on respective subsets of clients are selectively throttled during respective periods of time by performing operations for each subset during a respective phase that precedes a respective next phase of the implementation. The operations include gathering information regarding the phase from the clients in the subset; generating a score that indicates an extent to which metrics associated with the implementation are satisfied during the phase based at least in part on the information; comparing the score to a reference score for the subset to determine whether the score is within a tolerance associated with the reference score; and selectively throttling the next phase of the implementation based at least in part on whether the score is within the tolerance.
