How The Experts Build Reliable Cloud Apps
We live in the cloud era, where your services don’t live in machines in your garage, but are spread across huge data centers around the world. Cloud providers can help meet increasing demands for reliability – for example, they offer dynamic resource allocation that can handle usage spikes. At the same time, going cloud native means not having a physical server onsite that you can fiddle with, introducing its own unique challenges.

Are your SLOs realistic? How to analyze your risks like an SRE
Setting up Service Level Objectives (SLOs) is one of the foundational tasks of Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) practices, giving the SRE team a target against which to evaluate whether or not a service is running reliably enough. The inverse of your SLO is your error budget — how much unreliability you are willing to tolerate.
How to Achieve Measurable Reliability Results
Reliability is more important than ever. As users depend on services more and more, and competition in every sector grows, a great digital experience becomes the baseline for expectations, not the ceiling. It’s crucial to invest in making your software reliable enough to keep customers happy. But what does investing in reliability look like?
The Reverse Red Herring
During an incident, time is fungible. At points it seems to go way too fast, and at times it seems like an eternity for a command to complete. More importantly, however, is how it feels to be in an incident. It’s a heightened state of being, where any and every piece of information could be “the one” that helps crack open what is really going on. Likewise, there is an inherent distrust of incoming information.
