Action items resulting from a postmortem analysis are often to implement more advanced monitoring or deploy new tools to track usage at a fine-grain level. 

Today, Timothy Raymond shows us that a good old checklist can sometimes be the most efficient way to prevent regressions in production.

Some concepts mentioned in the episode:
