Incident Command: Ensure clear communication with stakeholders Problem Management: Ensure the "blameless" RCA process to identify systemic issues and prevent recurring outages in the integration layer.
Recurring Incident Rate: Reduce the volume of repeat incidents by 30% through effective Problem Management and permanent bug fixes.
Monitoring Coverage: Ensure 100% of production microservices have automated health checks and p99 latency alerts.
Environment Health: Monitor the stability of OpenShift and other servers, ensuring the optimal performance of the middleware services running within them.
Proactive Monitoring: Drive the strategy for advanced alerting and logging (using Grafana, Prometheus, ELK, or Dynatrace). Ensure that support teams are alerted to anomalies before they impact end-users.
Patch & Release Support: Oversee the safe deployment of hotfixes and platform updates, ensuring that automated rollbacks are in place for failed changes.
Mean Time To Resolution (MTTR): Achieve an average MTTR of < 45 minutes for critical (P1) integration incidents.
