It would be good to have some extra protection that can be activated for a node.

E.g. 
To get visual reminders in UI that you are on a production/protected node. Node name in big red letters or something?? You often have TEST node and PROD node up at the same time...
Extra confirmations before saving in UI edited config (UI editor together with preview is used much in debugging flows).
"Circuit breaker" for deploying changes to configs (no wipe with empty list e.g.)

  We have discussed using a different colour scheme for different subscriptions, but we never landed anything. It is a good idea though. For now there is only the subscription name and the subscription icon – which does have its own colour. 

  Regarding confirmation pop-ups; are there any specific ones you'd like to see beyond the saving of pipe/system configurations?

  We did implement support for a configuration upload circuit breaker, so you can enable that in production. Read about it here: https://docs.sesam.io/hub/changelog.html?highlight=circuit%20breaker#changelog-2020-11-20

  Confirmation pop-ups on the saving of pipe/system configurations is the most important. But on some existing pop-ups a stricter confirmation-process when in a prod-system would be good, and link to information about potential risks and how to best handle .
  
  A stricter confirmation-process E.g.  require pipe to be disabled, require confirmation on last seen value, only admins can do delete of pipes or datasets etc.
