Case Study: Bell Labs’ Demo Schedule

The Bell Labs research area had a very relaxed computing environment that did not require too much in the way of change management. However, there was a need for an extremely stable environment during demos. Therefore, the research area maintained a simple calendar of when stability was needed.

Researchers notified the SAs of demos via the usual helpdesk procedure, and the SAs paid attention to this calendar when scheduling downtime. They also avoided risky changes on those days and avoided any kind of group event that might take too many SAs away from the building. If the demo included CEOs or heads of state, an SA stood ready outside the door, poised to jump into action.
