Google's SRE practices for operating reliable, scalable production services, covering SLIs/SLOs, automation, and incident response.

Eight years after its release, Google’s SRE book is still the reference I hand to engineers before they rotate onto incident response. The SLI/SLO chapters taught our team to negotiate error budgets with product, and the practical essays on toil, release engineering, and postmortems shaped how we run production reviews. We paired the book with the Workbook to build concrete exercises—SLO be-briefs, simulated incidents, and blameless postmortems—and the combination has leveled up our on-call culture. Some tooling examples are dated, but the principles (measure reliability, automate everything you can, embrace blameless learning) are timeless. If you're designing or operating distributed systems, this belongs on your shelf.
