Tales from the NOC side—Share your spooky NOC stories with us!

Share your story!

Anyone with experience working in NOC or ITOps probably has a few harrowing tales to share (especially before automation or orchestration became more commonplace). Mysterious alerts and horrifying outages can create a sense of dread even in the most seasoned professional.

Whether you’ve worked a lot of graveyard shifts, had a ghoul of a time with software, or felt like a zombie after a few on-call shifts, we’re sure most of you could fill a book with your IT stories of terror.

We have an upcoming Halloween-themed podcast titled “Tales from the NOC side” from our popular That’s great IT series, and our very own NOC Keeper Craig Ferrera is hosting. Do you have a spooky story you’d like to share? Fill out the form, and you’ll automatically be entered to be a special guest on a future episode of our podcast, That’s great IT. We’ll even be sending a gift card to the first 50 who submit as our way of saying thank you for contributing your story.

We look forward to reading all of your spooky submissions!
