Without rock solid availability, nothing else matters. To achieve our mission of making internet business personal and scaling to support larger and larger customers, we have been continually, thoughtfully, and carefully investing in our people, systems, and processes to maintain Intercom\u2019s high standards of availability.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"pullquote-style-one\"><p>\u201cThe secret to Intercom\u2019s success in this realm is simple: years of consistent, careful, and multi-faceted cultural, organizational, and engineering work\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The secret to Intercom\u2019s success in this realm is simple: years of consistent, careful, and multi-faceted cultural, organizational, systems and software engineering work. This is why our customers \u2013 from small startups to massive, complex enterprises \u2013 put their trust in us.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s how we do it.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"availability-is-embedded-in-our-culture\">Availability is embedded in our culture<\/h2>\n<p>The role each Intercom employee plays in supporting availability is embedded deep in our culture. For engineering teams, getting code to production as quickly as possible in small batches allows us to learn and iterate.<\/p>\n<p>Rather than slow our engineers down, we invest in systems and build a culture around what it means to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.intercom.com\/blog\/ship-fast-safe-learn-from-production\/\">build fast <em>and<\/em> safe<\/a>. We educate our engineers in these policies and processes throughout their Intercom careers, from employee onboarding to performance reviews. It&#8217;s not just isolated code changes that are shipped safely, our entire software delivery process aims to ensure that, at every stage, we are building products that are reliable and scalable by default.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"pullquote-style-one\"><p>\u201cOur observability toolset is world-class and empowers every engineer in the company to understand, to the most minute level of detail, how the code they ship behaves in a production environment\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.intercom.com\/blog\/engineering-observability\/\">observability toolset<\/a> is world-class and empowers every engineer in the company to understand, to the most minute level of detail, how the code they ship behaves in a production environment. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite all our best intentions, however, some code changes will inevitably cause issues. That\u2019s why we also invest in mechanisms that allow us to recover from issues even faster than we deploy.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"we-build-strong-technical-foundations\">We build strong technical foundations<\/h2>\n<p>We build exclusively with a very small number of technologies as part of our stack, backed by a specific \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.intercom.com\/blog\/core-technologies-team\/\">core technologies<\/a>\u201d\u00a0enablement team. We\u2019ve developed deep expertise in these technologies over time, and our architecture choices and implementation patterns are simple and proven. This means we know what it means to design and build for reliability, with solutions that are proven at scale.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"pullquote-style-one\"><p>\u201cWe invest in building and maintaining shared systems and tools that underpin our ability to ship code safely, and to recover quickly in the event anything goes wrong\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Using these core technologies, we invest in building and maintaining shared systems and tools that underpin our ability to ship code safely, and to recover quickly in the event anything goes wrong.<\/p>\n<p>This type of automation gives us the ability to deploy changes to a small percentage of customer traffic, or to a specific set of customers, in order to understand its impact. We can easily toggle any customers\u2019 access to a feature on or off, which is a useful capability if an incident occurs. We can also recover by simply opting to <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">push the button to<\/span> \u2018roll back\u2019 <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to a safe working version of <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the code<\/span> \u2013 in less than five minutes.<\/p>\n<p>We maintain very close relationships with our primary cloud infrastructure vendor, Amazon Web Services (AWS), to continually jointly assess the robustness of our infrastructure platform and understand if there are opportunities to evolve and further strengthen our reliability.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"we-manage-risk-and-respond-instantly-when-things-go-wrong\">We manage risk and respond instantly when things go wrong<\/h2>\n<p>Part of the program strategy aims to identify, prioritize, and mitigate risks that would threaten our availability. Within the engineering org, we have a dedicated Availability Technical Program Manager (TPM) driving a cross-Intercom program dedicated to continuously strengthening and protecting our availability.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"pullquote-style-one\"><p>\u201cThe program team works with managers across Engineering to deeply understand any risks we\u2019re facing\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The program team works with managers across Engineering to fully understand any risks we\u2019re facing. These items are then prioritized as inputs to engineering roadmaps, with the TPM helping to ensure the work is carried out to schedule.<\/p>\n<p>When we encounter an incident impacting our customers, our extensive monitoring and alarming platforms pick it up almost instantaneously, and our incident response process kicks into gear. Our customers are truly global, and that means we support them with continuous 24\/7 on-call engineering and incident management support.<\/p>\n<p>Our emergency responders are online and respond within minutes of being paged, joined by an Incident Commander. The Commander\u2019s immediate focus is on minimizing customer impact, and they coordinate the entire effort, including issue identification, triage, communications, and resolution. This is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.intercom.com\/blog\/hope-for-the-best-or-prepare-for-the-worst-how-we-manage-critical-incidents-at-intercom\/\">highly disciplined and organized process<\/a>, underpinned by very well-defined roles and operating principles.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"pullquote-style-one\"><p>\u201cTypically we resolve such incidents in minutes, posting updates to our status page while simultaneously working to restore service to normal\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Typically we resolve such incidents in minutes, posting updates to our status page while simultaneously working to restore service. Resumption of normal service is certainly not the end point for us though. A key part of our incident management process is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.intercom.com\/blog\/incident-reviews\/\">incident review<\/a>, where we deep dive into the causes and contributing factors of an incident and look for learnings.<\/p>\n<p>In an internal open forum, we\u2019ll reflect on where we might have done better, and propose short-term action items as well as longer-term strategic changes. This meeting is one of the most beneficial for us: a reminder that being truly great requires dedication to continuous improvement.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-our-focus-on-availability-means-for-our-customers\">What our focus on availability means for our customers<\/h2>\n<p>Our commitment to our customers&#8217; success means that rock solid availability is a must.
