Similar to playbooks, runbooks are more specific to systems and networks and best defined as a tactical method of completing a task. They are a series of steps needed to complete some process for a known end goal. Examples include “Restarting the web services on frontend servers” to “Deploying the newest build of staging application.”
Runbooks can define the exact steps to make that action repeatable and usable as a programmatic approach to problem-solving. A well-written runbook not only lowers the difficulty of execution and ensures repeatability but also has the end goal of automating the action, making the runbook itself no longer necessary.
