7:00pm-8:00pm - "Site Reliability in the Serverless Age"

Is site reliability engineering and serverless a match made in heaven or a disaster waiting to happen? In this talk, we will discuss just what is this serverless thing anyway, why it matters and what it means for building and operating reliable systems. We will also explore each of the SRE principals such as embracing risk, service level objectives, monitoring and others. SRE principals will be mapped to their serverless counterparts, and we’ll discuss the challenges and best practices we’ve developed while building CloudZero’s serverless solution. Finally, we will make a few predictions about our serverless future and what it means for software engineering and operations as a whole.
