A roller coaster ride this week for the A
initiative. We achieved the milestone target ahead of schedule. Before having
time to celebrate or take a break, we ran into system performance and capacity
issues, on top of that, accidental system shutdown.
No question of the stress to teams and long hours of works
yet it’s ‘good’ timing and happening. The incidents are ‘growing pain’, showing
the incredible progress (if nobody uses the system, there would be no issue)
while reminding us the importance of fundamentals, inter-connectivity of
systems and preparing us for the next phase of scaling. Challenges also gave us
opportunities to question the status quo, rethink/ fuel changes, and encourage
collaboration.
I’m optimistic about the future and believe we will come out
stronger!
