Companies can be in flux. Tech stacks can be organic. And employees can leave. We understand. But your clients won't. You need to be sure you can support the service they have signed up for, or, that you are selling. Can you guarantee with certainty to your stakeholders their property or investment is secure? That you have the right employees with the right skill set ? And they are still working for your company? Because if an outage happens, and it will, this will be one of the main questions they will ask you. And your auditors will demand.
SkillStack is a bi-annual service that shows you your SkillStack, which is the umbrella term that includes your Tech Stack, The products relying on it, if this technology is invested in and if products are relying on it, or if they are being phased out (and what risk that signifies), and the employees who take care of it, if you have enough of them in different tiers to handle a P1 outage (defined as a major critical and loss of all service outage), and any skill gaps you might have that need to be addressed and with what urgency.
