Incident Commander: Role, Responsibilities, and How to Do It Well
When a major incident hits, someone has to be in charge. Not "in charge" in the sense of knowing the most about the systems - in charge in the sense of coordinating the response, making decisions under pressure, and keeping the team moving toward resolution. That's the incident commander. It's one of the most impactful roles in incident management and one of the least understood by engineers who haven't had to do it.
