Observability and SRE practices for more stable and predictable operations.
Index
From “putting out fires” to reliable operation
Clear SLIs/SLOs, actionable alerts, and learnable incident response. Observability connects product and platform.
1. Unified telemetry
Structured logs, metrics and traces with correlation. Dashboards by business domain.
2. SRE in practice
Blameless post-incident review, toil automation, and error budgeting.

How to turn the topic into a hiring decision
Start with an operational question: when a critical function fails, how does the team perceive and identify who was affected? Having a lot of graphics does not mean being able to answer. Prioritize signals linked to important journeys.
What to include in the scope
Combine logs, metrics and tracking without recording unnecessary secrets or personal data. Each alert must indicate action, person responsible and context. Retention and volume limits are part of the observability budget.
How to check delivery
Simulate a controlled failure and check detection, activation and diagnosis. Record what the team learned and adjust noisy alerts. An availability objective needs to be negotiated on a per-service basis, not copied from another product.
