SRE

Hi Vincente,

The objective of a DevOps is to help to go "quickly and oftenly" in prod. By adding deployment tools, load testing tools...

The objective of an SRE is :

• to have the vision on everything in prod (with dashboards)
• being alerted when something wrong happend (with alerts)
• be able to correct the stuff quickly or automatically _(for example, starting a script when a particular alert rise) _
• and give feedbacks to the dev team to improve the solution (to correct stuff or add new elements to help the support).

In general, the SRE will also be here during the architecture phase, to be aware of what will come and confronts architects about what's currently happening in production._ (Maybe using a particular tool is not great because they already have a huge latency with and the new feature needs to be executed really quickly, for example)_

I hope it will help you ! 🍺
