Operational Excellence built a customer health dashboard where everyone is green

“It has HTTPS.”— Katrin, Operational Excellence

Reason:

Mainly because the documentation starts with "TODO". Renamed twice to avoid attention.

Built by:

Katrin, an analyst

Build time:

2 evenings

Built with:

Firebase, because nobody wanted to design a backend

Database:

an SQLite file called DO_NOT_DELETE.db

Authentication:

the password is the company name plus 2022

Deployment:

accessible through an IP address because DNS is "later"

Responsible:

nobody. It has no owner.

Documentation:

a Slack thread from April

Security situation:

TLS is disabled because it is "inside the network"

Future disaster:

It will be the only application that still works during the migration.

Age: 12 days · originally expected to last 3 weeks · 2 owners so far · survived 1 reorganisation · last meaningful change 12 days ago · original builder left 42 days ago

Rated common mostly because: €159k per year, nobody owns it, the builder has left.
