Story
Information Technology work at Mailchimp spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in the United States. Backup and failover was splitting across regional habits. SRE and operations asked for a shared way to run reliability engineering without freezing local judgment.
Microsoft Azure (Azure OpenAI) is what they standardized on. Microsoft Azure is a public cloud platform for infrastructure, data, AI, and application services used by enterprises to host and modernize workloads. Mailchimp uses it as the system of record for backup and failover, with SRE and operations as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
Leaders get a picture they can actually walk. Teams get fewer mystery statuses. The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
