You’d be surprised how much rank and file developers can care about observability and reliability. The key to unlocking this is making them responsible for how their code runs in production by adding them to the on call schedule.
- vsareto 6y agoToo bad there isn't an equivalent on-call punishment for management and others around the dev process who also make mistakes and bad decisions. As far as I can tell, they get paid more for doing less.
- vajrabum 6y agoI'd guess that problem might go away if you make their bonuses contingent on a sleep numbers (along with the SLAs) for whoever has to run the application or it's downstreams whether that's a dev or an ops type. Base the number on pagerduty calls or something like so they can't game the number.
- edraferi 6y agoThat is a wonderful idea. Managers are responsible for the performance of their teams. NOBODY wants to sandbag sleep numbers, so it'd be a decent comp metric.
