3. Production Migration Checklist (meta.llama3-2-90b-instruct-v1:0 → meta.llama4-maverick-17b-instruct-v1:0)
Follow this deterministic engineering sequence before retiring pinned snapshots in production services and SDK clients:
- Inventory pinned model IDs: Search repositories and deployment manifests for
BEDROCK_MODEL_ID,bedrock/LiteLLM routes, and dated snapshot strings in the Meta Llama 3.2, Llama 3.3 & Llama 4 family (6 deprecated, 6 retired, 0 active variants tracked). - Benchmark successor quality & token pricing: Validate structured output schemas, tool-calling payloads, and latency against
meta.llama4-maverick-17b-instruct-v1:0, then compare input, output, and cached token rates in DevToken. - Enforce keyless CI guardrails: Wire RSS, Atom, iCal feeds & CI Guard into pull-request checks so retired or deprecated Meta Llama 3.2, Llama 3.3 & Llama 4 identifiers cannot re-enter production.
