Story
Information Technology work at Intelsat spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in the United States. On-call response was splitting across regional habits. On-call rotations asked for a shared way to run incident management without freezing local judgment.
Elastic (Elastic Security) is what they standardized on. Elastic builds search, observability, and security software on Elasticsearch, used to find information and investigate operational data. Intelsat uses it as the system of record for on-call response, with on-call rotations 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 The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
