Book
Seeking SRE
Conversations About Running Production Systems at Scale
David N. Blank-Edelman
Summary
A collection of essays and interviews from SRE practitioners across many organizations, edited rather than written by one author. Where the Google SRE books describe a single model, this one shows what happens when teams of different size and culture try to adopt it: Spotify running SRE without an SRE team, large enterprises introducing the role, and what to do with no dedicated headcount at all. The contributors disagree with each other, and that is part of the value.
Target Readers
- Engineers applying the Google SRE model in an organization that is not Google
- Leads who want an outside view of how their own reliability practice compares
