SREading
- SRE Leaders Panel: Work as Done vs Work as Imagined: panelists discussed the effects of imposter syndrome especially during high tempo situations and how culture directly affects the availability of our systems.
- Meaningful availability: How many nines do you actually need?: “It isn’t the nines that matter so much as the end-user experience, so let’s move the discussion beyond ‘How many nines do I need?’ to ‘How can I best serve my customers in ways that they care about?’”
- SRE, CSE, and the safety boundary: Lorin Hochstein focuses on how SRE and CSE vary yet work cooperatively in context of the dynamic safety model.
- Resilience in Action, Episode 3: Inclusion and Integrity with Sidney Miller: In the third episode of this podcast, Amy Tobey chats with Sidney Miller, Talent Acquisition Lead and Inclusion Strategist at Packet.
- How to get big results with a small SRE team: Pierre Vincent writes on how SREs can help teams while never blocking them by being wary of creating your own tooling, avoiding technology spread, measuring where your team is spending time, and more.
