Practical Site Reliability Engineering

By: Pethuru Raj Chelliah, Shreyash Naithani, Shailender Singh

Overview of this book

Site reliability engineering (SRE) is being touted as the most competent paradigm in establishing and ensuring next-generation high-quality software solutions. This book starts by introducing you to the SRE paradigm and covers the need for highly reliable IT platforms and infrastructures. As you make your way through the next set of chapters, you will learn to develop microservices using Spring Boot and make use of RESTful frameworks. You will also learn about GitHub for deployment, containerization, and Docker containers. Practical Site Reliability Engineering teaches you to set up and sustain containerized cloud environments, and also covers architectural and design patterns and reliability implementation techniques such as reactive programming, and languages such as Ballerina and Rust. In the concluding chapters, you will get well-versed with service mesh solutions such as Istio and Linkerd, and understand service resilience test practices, API gateways, and edge/fog computing. By the end of this book, you will have gained experience on working with SRE concepts and be able to deliver highly reliable apps and services.

The journey toward containerized cloud environments


For enabling the real digital transformation, establishing and sustaining containerized clouds are being pronounced as the way forward. With the containerization movement gaining a lot of attention these days due to the Docker containerization platform, cloud servers are being presented as a collection of application and data containers. With the cool convergence of microservices and containers, future cloud environments are going to be heavily containerized. We have written about the MSA pattern and the containerization paradigm. As we all know, the container tool ecosystem is expanding in order to automate most of the tasks associated with running containerized clouds. There are a number of third-party tool and product vendors building a variety of automated tools to simplify and streamline the adoption of containerization technology, especially the surging popularity and widespread us of Kubernetes, which is being recognized as the key...
