Region failover procedure

Confirm the trigger

Verify region health alarms across two independent signals before acting.

Drain traffic

Shift the global load balancer to the standby region; watch error rates.

Promote data tier

Promote the standby Postgres replica and confirm write availability.

Validate & communicate

Run smoke checks, update the status page, and notify stakeholders.

What it is

A playbook is the ordered, battle-tested procedure for a recurring operation: a region failover, a key rotation, an incident response. When it’s 3am and something is on fire, nobody should be improvising. The playbook is the calm, numbered path back to green.

Ready for 3am

Purpose, When to use, Prerequisites, Steps, Verification, and Rollback in one template, so nothing gets skipped under pressure.

Approved procedures

Playbooks go through review before they’re published, so the procedure on screen is the one your team signed off.

Found in seconds

Search across every playbook, so the right procedure surfaces the moment it’s needed.
