Runbook
What Is a Runbook?
A runbook is a documented set of steps for handling recurring operational tasks, incidents, or recovery procedures. It is used to make response work more repeatable and less dependent on individual memory.
Why Runbooks Matter
Runbooks matter because they:
- speed up incident response,
- improve operational consistency,
- reduce confusion during outages,
- support faster onboarding into operational duties.
