The latest News and Information on Incident Management, On-Call, Incident Response and related technologies.
In IT environments, incidents happen all the time and it's impossible to prevent all of them. Regardless of the available software solutions or the level of technical training of both users and developers, no organization is immune to incidents. The increased dependence on IT infrastructure to provide core services means that any disruption in IT services can cause any organization significant financial and reputational harm. For example, IT service providers need to resolve customer support tickets following the service-level agreements (SLAs), and failing to do so makes them liable for breaching such agreements.

But it could be worse. Now imagine being a less-experienced Ops engineer in a relatively small on-call team struck by tragedy. If you don't have sufficient guidance, let alone moral support- you're toast.
