Detail

What this is

A registry of every service, its owning team, its dependencies and its on-call route. Populated from repository metadata, so it stays current without anyone maintaining it by hand.

Who this affects

Everyone, occasionally — usually at the worst moment, when something is broken and you need to find its owner.

Updates

Info

Ownership now syncs from the staff directory nightly

Services whose owning team no longer exists are flagged rather than left pointing at nobody. There are currently 11 of these.
