Mastering DevOps and Site Reliability Engineering

Building reliable, scalable, and secure systems with SRE and DevOps (English Edition)

About this book

Description
DevOps and SRE have reshaped how modern engineering teams build and run systems. As modern organizations move away from manual ClickOps, understanding the synergy between DevOps, SRE, and platform engineering is vital for any engineer aiming to build reliable and scalable infrastructure.

This book provides a systematic journey through the professional lifecycle of a reliability engineer and draws from real experience rather than theory. It begins by establishing core skills in Kubernetes, IaaC, and networking before exploring the five pillars of SRE. You will learn to implement SLIs and SLOs, manage error budgets, and use chaos engineering for resilience. It also explores the human side of operations, including on-call practices, leadership, and growing your career in this field.

By the end of this book, you will have a grounded understanding of how modern infrastructure really works and what it takes to keep it healthy. Whether you are new to SRE or leading a DevOps team, this book gives you the tools, context, and perspective to build systems that last.

What you will learn
? Master core principles of modern DevOps and SRE.
? Automate infrastructure with IaC and GitOps practices.
? Improve system health through observability, metrics, logging, and tracing.
? Design scalable, reliable, and secure cloud-native applications and platforms.
? Optimize cloud costs with effective budgeting, forecasting, and cost controls.
? Advance your career with interview strategies and leadership best practices.

Who this book is for
This book is for SREs, DevOps practitioners, developers, administrators, and cloud architects maintaining modern systems. It is also for those looking to step into this field and hoping to build a strong, practical foundation. The book also speaks to managers and technical leaders wanting a clearer view of how things work behind the scenes.
