Meanwhile, passengers are stranded and taking their anger out on customer service agents and sharing their frustrations on social media.
Nearly two years ago, I joined PagerDuty as an Agile Coach with limited experience working with Kanban delivery teams.

This week’s AWS Summit in New York was an exciting one for both AWS and PagerDuty. The AWS team rolled out Amazon EventBridge, a set of APIs for AWS CloudWatch Events that makes it easy for AWS SaaS partners to inject events for their customers to process in AWS. PagerDuty is excited to continue and deepen our long partnership with AWS by supporting EventBridge as a launch partner.
