Establishing SRE Foundations – eBook

Improve Your Service Scalability and Reliability with SRE

Pioneered by Google to create more scalable and reliable large-scale systems, Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) has become one of today’s most valuable software innovation opportunities. Establishing SRE Foundations (PDF) is a concise, practical guide that shows how to drive successful SRE adoption in your own organization. Dr. Vladyslav Ukis presents a step-by-step approach to establishing the right cultural, organizational, and technical process foundations, quickly achieving a “minimum viable SRE” and continually improving from there.

Dr. Ukis draws extensively on his experiences leading an SRE transformation journey at a major healthcare company. Throughout, he answers specific questions organizations ask about SRE, identify pitfalls, and shows how to avoid or overcome them. Whatever your role in software development, engineering, or operations, this guide will help you apply SRE to improve what matters most: user and customer experience.

• Measure the progress and success of your SRE initiative
• Align organizational structures to support a full SRE transformation
• Sustain and advance your SRE transformation beyond the foundations
• Assess your organization’s current operations and readiness for SRE transformation.
• Understand how SRE works, its role in software operations, and the challenges of SRE transformation
• Achieve organizational buy-in and initiate foundational activities, including SLO definitions, alerting, on-call rotations, incident response, and error budget-based decision-making.

“The techniques and principles of SRE are not only clearly defined here, but also the rationale behind them is explained in a way that will stick. This is not some dry definition, this is practical, usable understanding. . . . I can wholeheartedly recommend this ebook without any reservation. This is an excellent textbook on an important topic that helps to move the game forward for our discipline!”
