How does the error budget policy work?

The skill provides a framework to adjust development velocity based on remaining reliability targets, suggesting actions like freezing non-critical changes when the error budget is exhausted.

Can I use this for non-web services?

Absolutely. While web examples are provided, the skill includes patterns for durability and write-success SLIs applicable to databases, storage systems, and batch processing.

What is the difference between SLIs and SLOs in this skill?

An SLI (Service Level Indicator) is the actual measurement of a service's performance, such as request success rate, while an SLO (Service Level Objective) is the specific target value you aim to meet, like 99.9% availability.

Does this skill provide Prometheus configurations?

Yes, it includes ready-to-use Prometheus recording rules for calculating SLI ratios and sophisticated alerting rules for monitoring error budget burn rates.

Defines and implements Service Level Indicators (SLIs) and Objectives (SLOs) to establish measurable reliability targets and error budgets.

Acerca de

This skill provides a comprehensive framework for implementing Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) practices within your services. It guides you through the process of defining user-centric SLIs, setting realistic SLO targets, and calculating error budgets to balance innovation velocity with system stability. With built-in support for Prometheus recording rules, multi-window burn rate alerts, and Grafana dashboard structures, it enables teams to move from reactive firefighting to proactive, data-driven reliability management.
