Course Description
Overview
The SRE Foundation course is an introduction to the principles and practices that enable an organization to reliably and economically scale critical services. Introducing a site-reliability practice requires organizational re-alignment, a new focus on engineering and automation, and the adoption of a range of new working paradigms. The course highlights the evolution of SRE and its future direction, and equips participants with the practices, methods, and tools to engage people across the organization involved in reliability and stability evidenced using real-life scenarios and case stories.Upon completion of the course, participants will have tangible takeaways to leverage when back in the office such as understanding, setting, and tracking Service Level Objectives (SLOs). The course was developed by leveraging key SRE sources, engaging with thought-leaders in the SRE space and working with organizations embracing SRE to extract real-life best practices and has been designed to teach the key principles and practices necessary for starting SRE adoption.
