As our exploration through 2023 continues from the second blog segment, “Mobilise: From Signal to Action”, one undeniable fact persists: Incidents are an unavoidable reality for organisations, irrespective of their industry or size. In the APAC region, a surge in regulatory enforcement has been observed against large corporations failing to meet service standards, resulting in severe penalties.
We live in an always-on world, where things move fast and break often. Building stronger resilience is critical for operational efficiency and delivering great customer experiences. CIOs have heavily invested in ITSM solutions, but a centralized, queued approach is no longer meeting the needs of modern organizations when it comes to critical, customer-impacting issues.
This blog was co-authored by Justyn Roberts, Senior Solutions Consultant, PagerDuty Automation has become an integral piece in business practices of the modern organization. Oftentimes when folks hear “automation,” they think of it as a means to remove the manual aspect of the work and speed up the process; however, what lacks the spotlight is the value and return automation can offer to an organization, a team, or even just one specific process.
Continuing our series on 2023 learnings from APAC, it’s increasingly evident that incidents in organisations are not a matter of ‘if’ but ‘when,’ regardless of their size or industry.

Throughout 2023, one thing has become abundantly clear: regardless of an organization’s size or industry, incidents are inevitable. Recently across the APAC region, we’ve seen numerous regulatory bodies clamp down on large companies who are failing to provide acceptable service, with some handing out quite severe penalties. For many, the cost of an incident is no longer just lost revenue and customer trust, but financial penalties and business restrictions.
In a world where organizations of all industries increasingly rely on digital innovation and experiences to create differentiation in the market, it has never been more critical to ensure the integrity of their operations are safeguarded against unforeseen outages and incidents. Operational disruptions today can have a major impact on brand reputation, create negative revenue implications and impact customer loyalty.
For modern enterprises aiming to innovate faster, gain efficiency, and mitigate the risk of failure, operational resilience has become a key competitive differentiator. But growing complexity, noisy systems, and siloed infrastructure have created fragility in today’s IT operations, making the task of building resilient operations increasingly challenging.
