  • Mid-level
On This Lesson 4 topics

This lesson is planned. The outline below lists the topics it will cover. The full lesson has not been published yet.

In this lesson

Planned topics

  • First questions: who is affected, how badly, since when, is it getting worse?
  • Severity levels with plain definitions: Sev1 checkout down for everyone; Sev2 a major feature degraded; Sev3 minor, workaround exists.
  • Escalate early; raising severity later is cheaper than discovering the delay.
  • Check recent changes: deploys, config, flags, dependencies.
