This Episode

This week Ned and I hosted Sal Furino to talk about SLOs. Service Level Objectives (SLOs) are a set of reliability measurements for customer or user expectations of services; in other words, are people having a good experience with your application or service? Today’s Day Two Cloud explores SLOs, the relevant metrics, and how to measure them. We also talk about how SLOs are a cross-discipline objective (that is, not just one team’s responsibility), the personas that should be involved in the creation, negotiation, adjusting, and reviewing SLOs, and more. Our guest is Sal Furino, Reliability Engineer at Bloomberg.
