What's the cost of toil?

• Copying and pasting commands from a playbook
• Repaving large environments
• Scheduling system backups
• Manual system configuration changes
• Spinning up/down test or staging environments
• Manual response to repeated incidents or events

But there are ways to reduce and manage this toil. Automation is key, and forms part of a 4-step approach.

Some toil is inevitable, but you need to reduce it to a manageable level and free up your engineers to do what they do best; solve interesting problems and deliver innovative solutions. 

But it's not as simple as just 'doing a bit more automation'; you need to understand where automation can deliver the most value to your teams. And, you need to be wary of automation actually ADDING to toil!
