About VictorOps and GitHub

VictorOps’s delivery insights endpoint integration with GitHub ensures better visibility into development, delivery, and issues in production. You can simply send pull request information from GitHub repositories directly into the VictorOps timeline where your team can collaborate further. Leverage the power of GitHub data with the actionable alerting and collaborative features (i.e. Rules Engine, annotations, and chat) of VictorOps.

VictorOps, with the integrated respository information pulled from GitHub, improves collaboration when working through the full SDLC. Detailed context into production issues and better communication leads to continuous delivery and more effective incident management.

Improved Visibility and Collaboration Leads to Continuous Delivery

  • Delivery Insights functionality lets you more closely monitor the SDLC in real-time with GitHub repository data contextually displayed in the VictorOps timeline
  • Collaborate cross-functionally around software delivery, develop and resolve incidents quickly with a deep knowledge of recent changes in production, and communicate around contextual alerts
  • Work and communicate seamlessly through both VictorOps and GitHub to influence rapid development and incident remediation
