This event is sponsored by PagerDuty
Hey everyone!
We're back with another edition of the Observability Engineering London meetup. This time, we're exploring the world of SLOs at scale.
Join us on Thursday, July 11th, where Alex, Senior Site Reliability Engineer at Google, will present the evolution of Service Level Objectives (SLOs) for the GCE Compute API over the past eight years. He'll start with the initial 30 SLOs, move through a phase with around a thousand, and end with millions of per-customer SLOs. He'll share anecdotes, techniques for handling low-QPS (continuous over discrete metrics), and strategies for aggregating data to enhance leadership visibility. He'll also give practical tips for running and improving this system in production.
