- What is site reliability engineering?
- The importance of automation within SRE
- The key skills an SRE practitioner needs
- Commonly-encountered programming languages
- The relationship between SRE and DevOps
- Learning from failures and using blameless post-mortems to continually improve (“measure everything” and closing the feedback loop)
