In March, we launched a series of ideas of how companies who are suffering from the Covid-19 pandemic can quickly reduce cost and increase liquidity. If you missed the webinar around our third idea, reducing cost by automating your incident handling, you can watch it today.
Many companies are under tremendous financial pressure due to the COVID-19 virus. In early March, we sat down to figure out what we can do to help and came up with 4 ways of how we can reduce cost and increase liquidity in the short term for a company.
You can read a summary of the cost saving series here. The summary include links to all 4 ideas to give you a deeper insight of each idea. Every idea also include a financial business case which have two purposes:
- Translate technology into tangible financials to motivate your CFO to support the idea.
- Provide a business case template to reflect your specific prerequisites.
Incident Automation
Incident handling is often a highly manual process in most companies. It requires 1st, 2nd and 3rd line resources in a service desk to manage error handling of the applications, databases and infrastructure. Further more, some expert forum, or Change Advisory Board, are usually in place to work with improvements to reduce tickets and incidents. A lot of people is required just to keep the lights on.
What if you could set up monitoring alerts that automatically triggers automated processes and resolves the incidents before the users even notice them and place a ticket to your service desk. Sounds like science fiction? Check out this webinar where Max Koldenius will reveal how to set up incident automation using AWS Step Functions.
