At our next meeting, Eddy Reyes will present SRE concepts of Service Level Objectives and Error Budgets to design an alerting system that only wakes you up at 3AM for problems that matter.

Once you have this information, we will discuss the necessary process and cultural components your team must have in place to ensure that your monitoring system perfectly reflects your customers' pain thresholds and the integrity of the data your team orients its engineering process around. We will also go over tooling options, sample solutions using Prometheus, and next step improvements to enhance observability of your systems for better problem determination.
