Cross-Region Incident Coordination

Multi-region incidents need cross-region coordination. The pattern that keeps regions in sync.

One IC

Single incident commander even when multiple regions are affected.

Per-region leads report to the IC.

Main incident channel; per-region sub-channels for technical detail.

Decisions surface to main.

Region-specific actions: region lead decides.

Cross-region actions: IC decides.
