Ready to make incident response your competitive advantage?
See how Uptime Labs builds provable, scalable incident response capability across your organisation.
Our co founders Hamed Silatani and Joe McEvitt sat with Courtney Nash from The Void to share what it was like when our own platform experienced a serious outage.
We help teams prepare for high-stakes incidents by running realistic incident simulations—but what happens when we, the company that teaches incident response, face our own Sev-1 incident?
Listen to the full podcast episode on The Void Community's website
Hamed and Joe discuss:
- The difficult trade-offs between business priorities and incident response
- How the incident escalated unexpectedly and what made it difficult to resolve
- The human side of incidents—leadership decisions, team dynamics, and learning from failure
- Why blameless postmortems and knowledge-sharing are critical for resilience
it's a raw, honest look at what happens when things go wrong, even for the experts.
