Incident Response Simulation
45 minQuarterly
Format: Simulate a production incident and practice the response process.
Scenario: "At 3 AM, you receive an alert: the application is completely inaccessible."
Response steps:
- Confirm the issue (Is it a false alarm?)
- Assess impact (Who is affected? How severe?)
- Communicate (Notify the team, update the status page)
- Diagnose (Check logs, check monitoring)
- Fix (Rollback? Fix code? Restart service?)
- Verify (Is the problem actually resolved?)
- Post-mortem (Why did it happen? How to prevent it?)
