Others have raised good points, but seriously something is wrong if you’re pushing updates that require restarts every hour.

I get the idea of “continuous deployment”, but this is sounding like restart-per-commit. At that point I question how much qualification and validation is happening. No one say unit tests, they aren’t sufficient, and I’ve worked on multiple projects where the pre-commit test suite runs alone can take more than an hour. Even with those tests there are semi-regular breakages.
