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.

Summary


Containers have definitely simplified how we build, deploy, and manage software applications by abstracting the underlying infrastructure. That is, developers just focus and develop software applications. Then, the developed applications get packaged in a standardized fashion, and shipped and deployed on any system without any hitches and hurdles. They can run on local systems as well as remote systems. With clouds emerging as the one-stop IT infrastructure solution for running and managing all kinds of enterprise, web, cloud, mobile, and IoT applications, applications are being containerized and deployed in cloud environments, through a host of automated tools. However, there is a need for a number of automated tools to automate the end-to-end activities of application development, integration, delivery, and deployment. Furthermore, an application's availability, scalability, adaptivity, stability, maneuverability, and security have to be ensured through technologically inspired...
