Story
Inside DoorDash, production support used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in consumer discretionary groups working out of the United States. SREs and developers needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
DoorDash uses Splunk SOAR from Splunk as the working layer for application health. Splunk (a Cisco company) is a data platform for security and observability, used to search machine data and investigate incidents. The practical change is simple: production support has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What DoorDash gets from Splunk is a durable place to run production support and a way for SREs and developers to see the same application health at the same time.
