  • Service Level Indicator: what we’ve chosen to measure progress towards our goal. E.g., “Latency of a request.”

  • Service Level Objective: the stated objective of the SLI – what we’re trying to accomplish for either ourselves or the customer. E.g., “99.5% of requests will be completed in 5ms.”

  • Service Level Agreement: generally speaking, this is a contract explicitly stating the consequences of failing to achieve your defined SLOs. E.g., “If 99% of your system requests aren’t completed in 5ms, you get a refund.”
