Frequently Asked Questions
What is site reliability engineering?
SRE applies software engineering to operations: teams define service level objectives, automate toil and use error budgets to balance reliability against feature velocity.
What is an SLO?
A service level objective is a target for a service level indicator such as availability or latency, for example 99.9% of requests succeeding over 30 days.
What is an error budget?
It is the allowed amount of unreliability implied by the SLO; when it is spent, teams slow feature releases to focus on reliability.
How does SRE differ from DevOps?
DevOps is a culture and set of practices for delivery; SRE is a specific implementation focused on reliability targets, automation and incident discipline.
Where do AI tools help?
AI SRE tools correlate alerts, summarise incidents and suggest root causes; see the AI SRE pages.
