View a Complimentary Webinar Sponsored by Harness

The modern customer expectation is that systems and platforms are available for them whenever they need them in a performant manner. Easier said than done with adages such as “slowness is the new down”. When maintaining a reliable and robust platform, a trio of measurements come into play; your SLAs, SLOs, and SLIs. If you are unfamiliar with the nuances of each, this session is for you.

Learn in this session some basics of setting up a culture of reliability and how to navigate your reliability journey such as ways to negotiate/re-negotiate your Service Level Objectives [SLOs]. Creating a culture of reliability touches all parts of the organization. Site Reliability Engineering organizations and practices are there to reduce technical debt for engineering teams; learn how to get started and/or further your journey.
