Chat Ops and Jenkins
summary
Drilling Info runs full chat ops with HipChat, Hubot, Jenkins bot and Slack slash commands wired to Jenkins and monitoring. Examples: a Hubot script watches long Jenkins jobs and notifies when finished, Slack slash triggers RunScope tests, alerts from autoscaling showed an Amazon “black hole,” and a Jenkins job is kicked to restart services after a chat alert — all in production. Team archives deploy rooms (hundreds of deploys a day claim) and uses chat logs for postmortems and ops.
