OOPS #18 - SREcon Social

OOPS (Outage Ops and Incident Response Group) is a community that celebrates all things incident response. Come and join fellow incident practitioners at a landmark pub in Dublin for a relaxed social with an opening talk by John Allspaw (Adaptive Capacity Labs; former CTO, Etsy). Please RSVP before we reach capacity! Uptime Labs is a UK-based company that provides a realistic incident response simulation platform designed to help engineering and SRE teams build resilience and confidence. Their platform allows organisations to rehearse high-stakes outage scenarios in a safe, risk-free environment, effectively helping teams develop the 'muscle memory' needed to handle real crises. By practising with lifelike drills that mirror production failures, Uptime Labs aims to reduce Time to Mitigation (TTM) and ensure that responders are better prepared, less stressed, and more consistent in their decision-making during actual incidents.
