Key Takeaways

Five things to carry out of the session.

01

Alerts and incidents are different

Alert

An operational signal. “Something happened.”

Incident

Coordinated operational work. “This requires response and resolution.”

02

Operational work can start in different ways

Machine initiated

  1. Monitoring
  2. Alert
  3. Incident when necessary

Human initiated

  1. Portal
  2. Service Offering
  3. Incident

03

Build around stable structures

Architectural Design Principle

  1. Service
  2. Team
  3. Escalation
  4. Schedule
  5. People

Build the operating model around stable organizational structures. People change. The service and response model should remain understandable and maintainable.

04

Services provide context

Services connect technical events with understandable business and operational ownership — for reporting, for prioritisation and for accountability.

05

Do not simply rebuild Opsgenie

Use JSM capabilities to create a simpler and more maintainable operating model:

  • Services
  • Service Offerings
  • Alert Grouping
  • Alert Policies
  • Automation
  • Syncs
  • Jira workflows
  • Reporting

Final course message

The objective of the Opsgenie migration is not simply to move existing configurations into Jira Service Management.

It is to create a cleaner, more understandable, and more sustainable incident-management operating model.
