The SNAFUcatchers Consortium for Resilient Internet-Facing Business IT officially launches at Velocity NYC 2016
The point about forming a consortium specifically for resilient internet-facing business IT caught my attention, since most resilience efforts stay trapped inside individual companies rather than shared across them. Launching at Velocity NYC 2016 makes sense too, because that crowd tends to care about operational reality rather than theory, and the fast withdrawal expectations people now bring to online services at https://casinosfastwithdrawal.com show how little patience users have for systems that stumble under pressure. I'd be curious whether the consortium ever published incident write-ups, since concrete failure stories tend to stick with teams longer than abstract frameworks.
Having https://svizzeracasino.com open in the background made me think about how every internet-facing service—not just gambling—needs to treat reliability as a shared discipline. The consortium’s focus on de-stigmatizing failures and publishing post-mortems is the right call, because most organizations only learn behind closed doors.
