Moving Quicksilver into production<\/a><\/div>\n
\n

We needed a way to deploy our new service seamlessly, and to roll back that deploy should something go wrong. Ultimately many, many, things did go wrong, and every bit of failure tolerance put into the system proved to be worth its weight in gold because none of this was visible to customers.<\/p>\n

The Secret of Communicating Incident Retrospectives<\/a><\/div>\n
\n

I especially like the idea of tailoring retrospective documents to disparate audiences \u2014 you may have more than you realize.<\/p>\n

Demystifying Site Outages<\/a><\/div>\n
\n

An analysis of two incidents from the venerable John Allspaw.\u00a0 These are from 2012 back when he\u00a0was at Etsy, and yet there\u2019s still a ton we can learn now by reading them.<\/p>\n

Why We Swear by the RCA<\/a><\/div>\n

An account of how Gojek responds to production issues, and why the RCA is a critical part of the process.<\/p>\n

The Incident Review: 4 Times When Typos Brought Down Critical Systems<\/a><\/div>\n

Type carefully\u2026 or rather, design resilient systems.<\/p>\n

\n
The SRE as a Diplomat <\/a><\/div>\n
\n

Requiring development teams to fully own their services can lead to siloing and redundancy. Heroku works to ameliorate that by embedding SREs in development teams.<\/p>\n

\n
Making Sense out of Incident Metrics<\/a><\/div>\n
\n

I\u2019ve shared some articles here suggesting doing away with incident metrics like MTTR entirely. This author says that they are useful, but the numbers must be properly ccontextualized.<\/p>\n

Why more incidents is no bad thing<\/a><\/div>\n
\n

Everything could be fine, or we could failing to report or missing problems altogether \u2014 we\u2019re flying blind.<\/p>\n
