Infrastructure services fail – At least from time to time. Providing users with a central point of information is vital in particular when your usual ways of communication (e.g. your website) are broken. When disaster strikes, updates must be published quickly and with little effort. Credentials must be known, templates available and the full service inventory and its interdependencies externally documented.

While there are dedicated services, it can also be done using Jekyll and its data and collections features on GitHub Pages. This Lightning Talk will explain how we implemented the approach for the DARIAH-DE Research Infrastructure services.
