Description
Incidents are an opportunity to level up, and on 22 Feb 2024 Intercom had one of its most painful outages in recent memory. The root cause? A 32-bit foreign key referencing a 64-bit primary key. Miles McGuire shared what happened, why it happened, and what they are doing to ensure it won't happen again (including some changes you can make to your own Rails apps to help make sure you don’t make the same mistakes.) #outage #lessonslearned Thank you Shopify for sponsoring the editing and post-production of these videos.
