SRE best practices

• don’t expect a tool to solve
• cultural change and need “believers” in senior role to advocate within company
• people need to absorb info within their own mindset

• Step 1: “I want to be reliable when I grow up” (you must believe you have problem first)
• Step 2: “Read the book!” and watch SRE v DevOps
• Step 3: “Panic!” (myth: fire team and retrain; not the case and can retrain team in house)
