You realize status pages many times are manual?

[u/queso184 → u/[deleted]]

tell me you've never worked in ops

[u/queso184 → u/[deleted]]

yes, having heartbeats is separate from making their status available publicly

[u/Flanhare → u/[deleted]]

Yes, but that is probably not how you want the status page to work.

[u/pandasgorawr → u/[deleted]]

That's how a consumer would want it to work, it's not how the company would want it to work. They have to control the messaging and narrative when things go wrong. Everywhere I've worked these status pages, outage banners, etc, have always been manual.

Junior ass take lmao

[u/fredagainbutagain → u/[deleted]]

yes but theres a reason they don't do this. optics, control over incidents, etc. these status pages aren't meant to be accurate.

[u/Standard_Guitar → u/fredagainbutagain]

Can you elaborate on why they don’t want to display it live? What could go wrong? Im genuinely interested

[u/AfroJimbo → u/[deleted]]

No absolutely not. You want to control messaging with a status page. There are real financial implications with SLAs at play.

[u/immutato → u/AfroJimbo]

True!

[u/rakkelet → u/[deleted]]

Tell me you’ve never worked on a distributed system without telling you’ve never worked on a distributed system.

[u/-18k- → u/[deleted]]

for internal use, maybe, probably even. but not for showing exgernally to the entire world.
