Story
Inside Revolut, reliability engineering used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in financials groups working out of the United Kingdom. SRE and operations needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Revolut uses Ansible Automation from Red Hat as the working layer for backup and failover. Red Hat, an IBM company, provides enterprise open source platforms, including RHEL, OpenShift, and Ansible, for hybrid cloud. The practical change is simple: reliability engineering has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Revolut gets from Red Hat is a durable place to run reliability engineering and a way for SRE and operations to see the same backup and failover at the same time.
