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


In this chapter, we covered architectural patterns, design patterns, software-inclined design patterns, and patterns that are currently distribute as cloud-dominated Software as a Service (SaaS) inclined markets, and they are trying to explore more patterns that can be easily achieved and implemented. We have given an overview of how to design your application around those patterns, and we have provided a good pictorial view, using mind maps that can be easily referred to during such discussion and implementation. We covered circuit breakers, rate limit, and throttling, which will help you build resilient services that can handle any distributed attacks and give a good experience to customers hosted on a multi-tenant environment. We covered circuit breakers thoroughly to give you an idea about how to implement them and how to use them in a situation where you are experiencing a heavy load or your backend-serving services are down. We have given tips for availability and reliability...
