Self-service actions for Day 2 Ops
Day 2 work should be fast and controlled. Instead of ad hoc scripts and manual approvals, teams run approved actions with platform guardrails and complete execution history.
Day 2 Ops
Day 2 Ops is the post-launch slice of the SDLC: run, observe, and safely change software already in production—not the initial build and ship. Examples: restart or roll a service after an incident with guardrails and audit trails; grant time-bound access to logs or prod—approved, expiring, and traceable; resize capacity, rotate secrets, or apply a patch outside a big-bang release.
What this product enables
Operational changes that are repeatable, governed, and auditable
Runbook workflows on demand
Expose repeatable operational runbooks as self-service actions so engineers can execute known-good changes without waiting on ticket queues.
Policy-aware execution
Apply guardrails before production change: required checks, ownership constraints, and approval gates for sensitive operations.
Built-in approvals and evidence
Capture who approved, who executed, and what changed. Keep an auditable record suitable for compliance and incident retrospectives.
Safe Day 2 change loops
Support post-launch work such as scaling, rotating secrets, restarting workloads, and temporary access with clear expiry and traceability.
Examples
A service owner runs a pre-approved scale action before a product launch. Approval is auto-required outside business hours, and execution records include actor, approver, and target workload.
During incident response, an engineer requests temporary elevated access through a self-service action. Access expires automatically and leaves a complete audit trail.
Security schedules a periodic secret rotation action for selected services. Every run is policy-checked and versioned, reducing manual steps and undocumented drift.
