Monitoring is an art form. That sounds cheesy and lazy, but the right kind of monitoring is very context-dependent and rarely does the same practice work across multiple pieces of software or people. This gets even harder when you think about modern software architectures. Microservices? Container schedulers? Autoscaling groups? Serverless? ${New-technology-that-will-solve-all-of-my-problems-but-probably-creates-other-problems}?
October is the month of spooky scares, so it makes sense that National Cybersecurity Awareness Month is also recognized at this time—after all, what’s more scary than, for example, having someone phish for your personal information and using said info to ruin your credit or losing your password to hackers so they have access to your bank account?
As digital transformation continues to be central to an organization’s growth mandate, it’s critical to ensure that customer-facing, revenue-generating, mission-critical applications are operationally reliable and secure.

For your team to effectively respond to incidents, you need a shared, unambiguous incident definition so you can recognize when an incident has occurred and assign the appropriate severity. Definitions of an incident differ across teams, but whatever definition you use, identifying and monitoring key service level indicators (SLIs) can help you understand when your service is operating normally—and when its performance has degraded to the point where you need to trigger an incident.
Yesterday, we kicked off PagerDuty Summit by launching new features that support the themes of Visibility and Intelligence. If you missed the keynotes or want to know more, check out this blog post. Today, we are making several announcements around two other themes that our CEO Jennifer Tejada touched on during her keynote yesterday: Platform and People. In fact, these themes are so closely related that we refer to them as one—that PagerDuty is a platform for people to do real-time work.
Today at PagerDuty Summit 2019, we announced PagerDuty for Customer Service—a powerful new way to connect Customer Service teams to engineering and IT teams. We were also excited to debut two new partner integrations with Zendesk and Salesforce Service Cloud, and we can’t wait to show users how PagerDuty and our customer service ecosystem partners help connect the right teams so they can work together and resolve issues quickly to reduce customer impact.
At PagerDuty, we continually innovate every month (check out our What’s New page for the latest updates). But while we ship product continuously, we also save a plethora of new and improved capabilities to share with our customers at PagerDuty Summit, our annual customer event.
