SRE in Transition: From Startup to Enterprise

Aug 9, 2023 By Datadog In Datadog

"Startups are defined by “ship or die”. As a result, SRE teams at a startup should be focused on enabling product engineers to ship features as quickly as possible. As your startup transitions from “we’ll run out of money in the next 18 months” to “we have more than 1000 engineers”, how should the SRE organization evolve and provide the best value through that transition (including booting one up if you don’t have one)? I will discuss specific ways the organization needs to evolve to meet this challenge, how the SRE org can advocate for and support this change (both in direct actions and in “influence”), and how the overhang of startup technical and cultural debt can make this shift more challenging (but also more necessary).

Kubernetes Incident Management Best Practices

Aug 3, 2023 By Rajesh Tilwani In Rootly

There are so many basic configurations you could apply and create the infrastructure for your application for the time being and it might work just fine.
