RippleLedger

RippleLedger is a web app (with optional desktop agent) for mapping and stress-testing complex socio-technical systems: microservices, data pipelines, vendor dependencies, and human on-call workflows. It ingests signals from incident tools, service catalogs, and logs, then builds a living dependency graph that changes over time. You can run “what-if” simulations (e.g., database latency spike, vendor outage, staffing shortage) to estimate blast radius, time-to-detect, and time-to-recover. The app outputs concrete mitigation tasks: missing circuit breakers, single points of failure, brittle runbooks, and high-risk handoffs between teams. It’s not a pretty diagrammer; it’s a decision tool for reliability planning and postmortems. Expect some setup effort: if your org has poor service ownership metadata, the first month will be messy. But once wired, it becomes a continuously updated risk radar rather than a stale architecture slide.
