About This SRE Reference Site¶
Our Mission¶
The world of Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) is vast and ever-evolving. Our mission with this site is to create a centralized, accessible, and practical knowledge base to help aspiring and practicing SREs navigate this landscape. We aim to collect, curate, and present key topics, foundational concepts, best practices, and useful resources required to prepare for SRE roles and to grow as an SRE professional.
Why This Site?¶
As SRE principles become increasingly critical for building and maintaining resilient, scalable, and efficient systems, the demand for skilled SREs continues to grow. We noticed a need for a consolidated reference point that not only lists topics but also provides context and pathways for learning. This site is an effort to fill that gap, offering a structured approach to SRE preparation.
What We Hope to Achieve¶
- Clarity: Demystify complex SRE concepts.
- Comprehensiveness: Cover a broad spectrum of SRE knowledge, from fundamentals to advanced practices.
- Practicality: Focus on information that is directly applicable to SRE roles and interviews.
- Community (Future Goal): Eventually, foster a community where SREs can share knowledge and help each other grow.
Who Is This For?¶
- Software engineers looking to transition into an SRE role.
- System administrators aiming to adopt SRE practices.
- Students and new graduates aspiring to start a career in SRE.
- Existing SREs seeking a quick reference or wanting to brush up on specific topics.
A Living Resource¶
This site is a dynamic project. The information landscape for SREs is constantly changing, and we intend for this site to evolve with it. We will be adding new topics, updating existing content, and incorporating new resources over time.
We hope you find this site valuable on your SRE journey!
