Researchable is a software development and data company dedicated to helping organizations in building software applications with core analytical components like forecasting, machine learning, real-time intelligence, and statistical analysis. They take a human-centric approach and focus on partnerships while developing software and data-driven solutions.

Researchable works with organizations such as Vitens, UMCG, University college london, Leiden University, the Dutch Ministry of Defence, and the University of Twente They believe that information security is essential in good software development and data analyses, and comply with ISO 27001, the highest achievable global standard in the field of information security.

Their microservice architecture made it difficult for them to monitor many different services. They also lacked a centralized service management pane for reporting incidents; this is where Squadcast helped. Squadcast’s Service Catalog provides a centralized dashboard for monitoring the health of their services and managing all of their alert sources thus gaining better visibility into services while also taking advantage of instant incident reporting capabilities to lower their Mean Time To Resolution (MTTR).

Challenges and Solutions
Challenges
Solutions

Lack of a centralized Service Management: Maintaining a microservices architecture meant they had to manually manage multiple services and lacked a centralized service management pane for clarity and visibility.

Service Catalog for centralized Alerting and Reporting: By using Squadcast’s Service Catalog, they now have better visibility of service ownership and health. This makes it easier to handle services of multiple clients.

Manual Alerting Process: Lack of automated alert routing resulted in inefficient alerting, delayed incident acknowledgement, and higher response time.

Automated Alert Routing: With highly configurable Routing Rules the team is now able to route alerts to the right responder(s) based on the tags for faster incident resolution- thanks to Squadcast's Event Tagging and Alert Routing features.

Lack of centralized Incident Dashboard: They needed a centralized incident reporting dashboard because different services in their stack were integrated with different monitoring tools. This made post-incident analysis haphazard.

Centralized Incident Dashboard: Squadcast’s centralized Incident Management dashboard offers a single source of truth for incident data and service health.
