Hi everyone! Welcome to the PagerDuty Community Weekly Update! It’s officially Fall in the northern hemisphere, so time for some pumpkin spice. And pumpkin curry. And carved pumpkins on the porch, at least until the squirrels get them.
## Cool Stuff
We had a pair of webinars this week. If you missed them, don’t worry! You can still sign up to receive the recordings! 
- [Improve Efficiency of Incident Response with Automated Diagnostics for AWS in PagerDuty](https://www.pagerduty.com/resources/webinar/improve-efficiency-of-incident-response-with-automated-diagnostics-for-aws/) with our Solutions Consulting team. Let all your engineers diagnose on AWS like your senior engineers! 
- Kat Gaines and Carrie Lacina hosted a webinar, [Customer Service Operations: The Proactive Approach with Zendesk](https://www.pagerduty.com/resources/webinar/proactive-approach-with-zendesk/). Get ahead of customer issues with PagerDuty and Zendesk!

[Cybersecurity Awareness Month](https://www.cisa.gov/cybersecurity-awareness-month) is coming!
We can’t wait for this movie:

We’ve got Megg Sage and Patrick Roserie from our security team on the [podcast](https://pageittothelimit.com/) next week, and we’ll be hearing from some of our security-focused integration partners on Twitch. Dust off those hardware security devices and join us!

## Product Deprecations
Check out this [post](https://www.pagerduty.com/blog/whats-new-product-update-2022-09-29/) on the blog for info on some new features, and **important information** about features that are being EOL’d soon. 
- Webhooks v1 and v2 are being phased out. [Migrate to webhooks v3](https://support.pagerduty.com/docs/webhooks#migrating-from-v1v2-generic-extensions-to-v3-webhook-subscriptions) soon! You can learn more in [Scott's post](https://dev.to/pdcommunity/stay-informed-with-pagerduty-webhook-subscriptions-bgd) too.
- Event Rules are being replaced by [Event Orchestration](https://support.pagerduty.com/docs/event-orchestration). You have until the end of January, 2023 to [migrate](https://support.pagerduty.com/docs/migrate-to-event-orchestration) your rules to the new featureset.

Curious about our product EOL process? We had [Sean Steacy on the podcast](https://www.pageittothelimit.com/service-eol-with-sean-steacy/) earlier this year to talk about it!

## Find us in person!
We have live in-person sessions coming up! 

- Kat was at [ElevateCX](https://elevatecx.co/) this week in Denver, to give her talk Happy Agents = Happy Customers.

- Scott is taking his talk Built-in Testing in Go is More Than Just Passable to [GoLab.io](https://golab.io/) next week, October 2-4 in Florence, Italy and at [Indy.Code()](https://indycode.amegala.com/) October 19! He’ll also be talking about Client-side OAuth with PKCE at Indy.Code().

Our automation folks are looking to start some in-person meetings with members of the Rundeck Open Source community. If that’s you, let us know! 

## We’re also virtual!
Mandi had a session at Conf42 [Incident Management](https://www.conf42.com/im2022) on yesterday. Check out the event details on the [Conf42 site](https://www.conf42.com/im2022). 

The [opening panel discussion](https://www.conf42.com/Incident_Management_2022__incident_management_panel_discussion) with Charity Majors, Nora Jones, and Erin McKeown was super interesting.  

## On the Podcast
Last week, Jason Morgan joined Mandi to talk about [Service Mesh and Linkerd](http://pageittothelimit.com/service-mesh-with-jason-morgan/). 

We publish new episodes about twice a month, so make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss any. Next week, we’ll have PagerDuty’s security team joining us.
