PagerDuty Helps ServiceNow Users Shift From Queued to Real-Time Digital Operations
PagerDuty is excited to participate in ServiceNow’s Knowledge19 event in Las Vegas this week. As a ServiceNow Gold Technology Partner, this is an event our team looks forward to all year because it gives us a chance to connect with many of our shared customers who depend on ServiceNow for critical parts of their operations. This year is even more exciting for us since we’re launching the newest version of our ServiceNow integration for HybridOps teams.
What exactly do we mean by HybridOps though? Over the course of PagerDuty’s 10-year history, we’ve been able to provide real-time operations functionality to a wide variety of Ops teams: everything from network operations centers (NOCs) and central IT to DevOps and DevSecOps. These heterogeneous teams are inherently different but share some pretty important core tenets, like:
- Democratizing knowledge across teams. Keep ITOps communicating with DevOps teams by using shared data, both during day-to-day operations and when something goes wrong.
- Pragmatic, continuous improvement. Help teams incrementally and continuously improve their operations using common metrics, regardless of their operating model.
- Accelerating digital transformation. Transform your organization by providing enterprise-wide visibility into digital operations, helping business leaders prioritize investments in technology and people.
The PagerDuty integration for ServiceNow uses these core tenets to help HybridOps teams drive real-time operations. The native ServiceNow integration means teams can augment their operational data set without leaving the familiar ServiceNow interface that they are comfortable using. This allows teams to use PagerDuty’s powerful incident response functionality from within ServiceNow—or in PagerDuty itself. The result is true “work where you are” functionality that streamlines incident response and frees up time for innovation so teams can operate at the speed of business.
Teams can also orchestrate robust incident response workflows from within ServiceNow. With our new integration, NOC and other first-line teams can now leverage PagerDuty and escalation policies created by DevOps teams from within the ServiceNow environment. This includes fully bi-directional syncing of incident state/priority, assignees, and groups between PagerDuty and the System of Record to reduce inefficiencies and keep everyone on the same page. Without leaving the ServiceNow interface, teams can reduce the mean time to resolution while minimizing the impact of digital disruptions.
PagerDuty also allows you to track status in real time from the ServiceNow interface across heterogeneous Ops teams. Users can easily do things like recruit additional responders or automate escalation paths. It’s also easy to automatically initiate a team conference bridge with PageDuty’s one-touch-to-join capabilities.
