Step-by-Step Playbooks for Prompt Incident Response and Remediation

Empower self-sufficient issue resolution

Avoid bottlenecks by making knowledge accessible to all.

How great would it be not to have to bother SREs and Platform experts for help with issues you wish you could handle independently? StackState Remediation Guides capture and share knowledge, putting the expertise directly in the hands of those troubleshooting the issue and reducing dependency on just a few experts. 

By breaking down complex problems into manageable steps, our guides enable users to navigate through the troubleshooting process with ease. Each step is carefully outlined, ensuring that everyone can follow, regardless of their technical expertise. Users not only resolve immediate concerns but also gain a deeper understanding of the systems they are working with so they can proactively mitigate future issues.

Say goodbye to time-consuming manual event correlation. 

StackState's advanced data correlation engine automatically identifies and links all related issues and — by connecting the dots between different components — provides a holistic view of the problem. Monitors then look for signals to reach certain dynamic thresholds, and when an unhealthy pattern emerges, immediately trigger pre-configured step-by-step guides to remediate the most common issues.

Our automatic approach to correlation not only saves time but also enhances accuracy, making sure that every relevant aspect is considered in the troubleshooting process. In essence, we do the heavy lifting of issue correlation for you and present the best path forward to rectify the issue. This allows you to focus on solving the problem without wasting time navigating through multiple tools.

Code snippets are included as remediation suggestions and can be tailored to address common programming errors or bugs in your software, ensuring a comprehensive approach to problem-solving.

Additionally, these guides, also called playbooks or runbooks, are designed to ensure that even those with minimal technical expertise can navigate through the incident response process effortlessly. The structured format of our guides allows for a systematic and efficient response to issues so users can address vulnerabilities quickly and confidently.
