The Site Reliability Workbook: Practical Ways to Implement SRE 1st Edition, Kindle Edition
In 2016, Googleâ??s Site Reliability Engineering book ignited an industry discussion on what it means to run production services todayâ??and why reliability considerations are fundamental to service design. Now, Google engineers who worked on that bestseller introduce The Site Reliability Workbook, a hands-on companion that uses concrete examples to show you how to put SRE principles and practices to work in your environment.
This new workbook not only combines practical examples from Googleâ??s experiences, but also provides case studies from Googleâ??s Cloud Platform customers who underwent this journey. Evernote, The Home Depot, The New York Times, and other companies outline hard-won experiences of what worked for them and what didnâ??t.
Dive into this workbook and learn how to flesh out your own SRE practice, no matter what size your company is.
Youâ??ll learn:
- How to run reliable services in environments you donâ??t completely controlâ??like cloud
- Practical applications of how to create, monitor, and run your services via Service Level Objectives
- How to convert existing ops teams to SREâ??including how to dig out of operational overload
- Methods for starting SRE from either greenfield or brownfield

David K. Rensin (1972-) is an American technology entrepreneur, computer scientist, and best-selling author based in Silicon Valley (just south of San Francisco, CA). He writes on a wide range of technical topics from advanced data management to best practices for building distributed systems and companies.
Drawing on his experience founding and leading companies, helping to take them public, and having them acquired, Mr. Rensin writes from the perspective of a practitioner who has seen nearly all of the good, bad, and ugly that exists in the technology space.
(If you meet him, ask him about the time he told Steve Jobs that the original iPhone was "destined to fail" -- a conversation which went as well as you might imagine.)
He is currently a Distinguished Engineer at Google - working for Alphabet's CFO as a technical advisor in the areas of capital allocation, efficiency, and long-term technical strategy.

Betsy is a Technical Writer for Google in NYC specializing in Site Reliability Engineering.

En route to her current career, Betsy studied International Relations and English Literature, and holds degrees from Stanford and Tulane.

- Nothing from this book with get you hired as an SRE, not one chapter comes up in interviews
- Some chapters are just boring and redundant
- Is about 10 chapters longer than it needed to be, for the sake of making the book thicker
Really helpful book.
