Explore the effectiveness of Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) in this 21-minute conference talk from SREcon22 Americas. Delve into the findings of the DevOps Research and Assessment (DORA) group's first study on SRE adoption across technology teams. Discover how SRE practices compare to DevOps methodologies, their widespread implementation, and their impact on team performance. Learn about the positive correlation between SRE adoption and improved DevOps success metrics. Gain insights into how SRE benefits both humans and systems, mitigating burnout, enabling work balance, and predicting better reliability outcomes. Understand the business implications of higher reliability and the potential for growth in SRE implementation. Presented by Dave Stanke, a Developer Advocate for Google Cloud Platform, this talk offers valuable perspectives on the relationship between DevOps and SRE, and how even elite software delivery teams can benefit from modernizing technical operations.
