This week, Sean sat down with Emily Arnott of Blameless, who is making it her mission to spread “the Gospel of SRE.” Their discussion covered the philosophy underpinning Site Reliability Engineering, its origins in the world of manufacturing, and a few detailed scenarios for how this approach plays out in real-world incident response teams. 🔍 How does an approach that bakes operational wisdom into the development and release process from the beginning change things for teams? 🔍 What is the typical structure of an SRE team, and the incident command role? (And how is it similar to a military training team?) 🔍 How does an SRE approach differ, when “the bodies hit the floor” and the team needs to rapidly triage incidents? 🔍 How is the evolving language and taxonomy around SRE changing our paradigms for how we think about incident response?
