Hello everyone.
I'm Nagarjuna Malladi.
Today, I'm going to talk about the multi faceted landscaping of Site
Reliability Engineering, SRE, a deep dive into expertise specific concepts.
We'll discuss about these, table of contents.
You can review them once.
Let's go into, introduction to SRE.
So Site Reliability Engineering SRE is a discipline that merges software
engineering with IT operations.
It emphasizes the primary goal of ensuring system reliability,
performance, and scalability, especially as system grows in complexity.
SRE originated at Google and integrates engineering practices
with operational responsibilities.
SRE is a relatively new field that has gained prominence,
especially in the tech industry.
It recognizes the need to address the challenges of managing complex
systems in modern dynamic environments.
SRE, I can tell key goals of the SRE.
Enhancing system availability and reliability.
Thank you.
Ensuring that services function reliably and are available to users
and automatic operational tasks just to reduce the manual errors
and make things more reliable.
Efficiently managing system failures.
By reducing recovery time, thereby minimizing service disruptions.
So these goals showcase the proactive nature of SRE.
It's not just about reacting to the failures, but also about
preventing them and ensuring systems are robust and resilient.
So cloud native infrastructure platforms.
It's introduced the concept of cloud native infrastructure, highlighting
industry leading cloud services providers, such as AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI.
These platforms offer scalable and flexible computing resources.
Cloud computing has revolutionized how organizations manage
infrastructure, providing on demand resources and scaling capabilities.
Code technologies in SRE.
Infrastructure as a code.
Tools like Terraform allow for a consistent infrastructure
provisioning and management.
Serverless computing platforms, AWS, Lambda, Azure Functions, GCP,
Cloud Functions, enable running code without managing servers.
Containers orchestration systems like Kubernetes, ECS, AKS, manage and scale
containerized applications efficiently.
Cloud native security solutions ensure secure access and data
production in the cloud environment.
These technologies are pivotal in modern software architecture, enabling
dynamic and scalable infrastructure with enhanced security measures.
Let's discuss about networking in SRE.
Designing resilient network topologies with redundant and low latency.
Performance monitoring, like tracking metrics like latency,
throughput, and jitter using machine learning for anomaly detection.
Network security, employing firewalls, IDS, IPS, VPNs, and zero trust
architectures to safeguard the network.
DNS and CDNS, optimizing domain name resolution and content
delivery to reduce latency.
Networking is the backbone of any distributed system.
Efficient network design and performance monitoring are crucial for ensuring
reliable and responsive applications.
Let's go to database.
Database management and reliability.
High availability through replication ensures continuous access.
Disaster recovery mechanism, including backups, geographic distribution,
safeguard against data loss.
Think about, some natural disaster happening in any area, and, having a
disaster recovery, for those data centers.
How important is for the, clients, customers, and everyone like company,
having this disaster recovery of data.
performance optimization, techniques, that improve query efficiency and
implement caching, mechanisms.
Security measures, product data, employing encryption, access
control, and data masking.
Comparison of NoSQL and relational databases highlights
their respective advantages.
Thank you.
Databases are critical assets for any application.
Ensuring their reliability, performance, and security is essential
to maintain system integrity.
I can spend a lot of time, explaining only on this slide.
It has so much data there.
in the event of time, I'm going for other slide.
Observability and monitoring.
Metric collections.
Capture resource utilization, latency, and error rates.
Centralized logging tools like Elkstack, Splunk, Aggregate
logs for in depth analysis.
And now clouds are doing their own open search.
and that's for the same reason.
Distributed tracing assets in tracking request flow using
tools such as Jagger and Zipkin.
Electing systems leverage dynamic thresholds and anomaly detection
to trigger notifications.
And then by using of machine learning and AI, this can Find the pattern also, at
what time the system is going high CPU, at what time the system having more load,
that kind of good information we can get.
And Matrix framework establishes SLIs, SLOs, and SLAs for quantifying
and managing reliability.
Observability tools enable SRE teams to detect and resolve issues promptly,
ensuring efficient system management.
Let's go to automation and DevOps.
It's one of my favorite topic, CI, CD pipelines for automated testing
and deployment using Jenkins, GitLab, CI, and GitHub actions.
Configuration management tools like Ansible, Puppet, Chef,
ensure consistent environment.
Scripting languages like Python, Bash, PowerShell automate
repetitive tasks and checks.
Incident response automation focuses on self healing systems
to minimize mean time to recover.
Chavos engineering introduced controlled failures to test system robustness.
Service level management sets targets SLOs and agreements SLAs
for reliability measurement.
Capacity planning utilizes ML and trend analysis to predict resource requirements.
Automation streamlines processes allowing SRE teams to manage
complex systems efficiently.
Chavos engineering might seem counterintuitive, but it's a
proactive way to test system limits and enhance resilience.
Let's see some advanced topics.
Chavos engineering
It's a practice of introducing controlled failures is further
emphasized with tools like Chavos Monkey.
Error budgets allows team to allocate risk and balance stability with innovation.
Capacity planning techniques employ machine learning to
forecast resource needs accurately.
These advanced concepts showcase the strategic thinking involved in SRE.
It's about staying ahead of potential issues and optimizing system capabilities.
Industry specific SRE considerations, financial services, emphasize
security, regulatory, compliance, and handling with the High frequency
transactions, e commerce, focus on massive scalability demands, especially
during peak times and fraud prevention.
Healthcare, prioritize data privacy, ensure interoperability and
manage life critical applications.
SRE adaptability allows teams to tailor strategies to introduce strategies
to industry specific needs, ensuring systems are reliable and compellent.
Think about financial services, financial companies, JP Morgan, and a
lot of banks, Capital One, Citibank.
See, how important, for them, the security and, having, high frequent,
transactions, how important to make their system always up and, running.
And think about, e commerce, in the black Friday, the load
on the, e commerce, systems.
Amazon, Walmart, like you think about anything like Apple's,
Samsung's, like mobile phones.
So there's so much load on these systems.
And then, if they're down for some time, the companies, have a huge loss.
And then, a lot of, Folks try to do fraud also at this time and then we need to
prevent those transactions as SREs and then Think about data health care and
how critical it is with a lot of viruses and all you know, how critical the Trials
are, the companies that do Lily, Leap, Pfizer and a lot of healthcare, Merck's.
they are like very important and then, trials and keeping
patient's data, secured.
Yeah, other than regular information, doctors also cannot see all the patient
information, because of this HIPAA rules.
So that's important.
That's how it's very important in the healthcare industry.
Let's, conclude.
So in conclusion, this, encapsulates the essence of SRE emphasizing its
value in achieving reliable, scalable, and efficient systems by harnessing
automation, observability, and robust incident response practices.
Organizations can manage complex infrastructure.
The adoption of cloud native technologies and CICD pipelines
enhances SRE effectiveness.
SRE has become an indispensable aspect of managing modern software systems.
It integrates engineering principles with operational best
practices, ensuring organizations can scale their services reliably.
