 # Create a deployment plan

 A "service management" mindset means that the devices in your organization fall into a continuum, with the software update process being constantly planned, deployed, monitored, and optimized. And once you use this process for feature updates, quality updates become a lightweight procedure that is simple and fast to execute, ultimately increasing velocity.
 
-When you move to a service management model, you need effective ways of rolling out updates to representative groups of devices. We’ve found that a ring-based deployment works well for us at Microsoft and many other organizations across the globe. Deployment rings in Windows client are similar to the deployment groups most organizations constructed for previous major revision upgrades. They're simply a method to separate devices into a deployment timeline.

 The Windows Update for Business deployment service is used to approve and schedule software updates. The deployment service exposes its capabilities through the [Microsoft Graph API](/graph/use-the-api). You can call the API directly, through a [Graph SDK](/graph/sdks/sdks-overview), or integrate them with a management tool such as [Microsoft Intune](/mem/intune). 
 
 This article uses [Graph Explorer](/graph/graph-explorer/graph-explorer-overview) to walk through the entire process of deploying a feature update to clients. In this article, you will:
