Cloud Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) is a discipline that combines software engineering, systems engineering, and operations to create highly reliable software systems in cloud environments. It focuses on the reliability, availability, and performance of cloud-based applications and services.

SRE Cloud Contracts

• System Design and Implementation: SREs work to build reliable and scalable systems that can handle a wide variety of workloads.
• Performance Monitoring and Tuning: Continuously monitor applications and optimize performance based on observed metrics.
• Disaster Response: Rapid response to incidents and accidents, coordinating actions to restore service and reduce disruption.
• Documentation: Create and maintain documentation of systems, processes, and best practices to ensure knowledge sharing across the team.

Tools and Technologies

SREs often use a variety of tools to support their work, including:

• Monitoring Tools: Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, New Relic
• Automation Tools: Terraform, Ansible, Puppet, Kubernetes
• Event Management: PagerDuty, Opsgenie, Slack
• Version Control: Git, GitHub, GitLab
