Story
Inside NVR, incident management used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in consumer discretionary groups working out of the United States. On-call rotations needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
NVR uses Pixie from New Relic as the working layer for on-call response. New Relic provides observability software so engineering teams can monitor applications, infrastructure, and user experience. The practical change is simple: incident management has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What NVR gets from New Relic is a durable place to run incident management and a way for on-call rotations to see the same on-call response at the same time.
