THE VALUE OF OBSERVABILITY PIPELINES SRE

MEET THE SITE RELIABILITY ENGINEER: SRE

The average SRE is likely to be
solely responsible for:
DATA MANAGEMENT

SREs manage data in many ways, including database schema migration, correcting data-driven application errors, handling unprecedented data volume, cleaning up or removing old data, and deleting customer data to maintain privacy commitments.

PLATFORM PERFORMANCE AND SOLUTIONS

SREs work to ensure that their organization's platform is available and performing as expected.

CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:

SREs manage the configuration needed to support running the applications and software that make up a system, application, or platform.

Typical observability data interactions:
TROUBLESHOOTING
ALERTS / MONITORING UPTIME / APPLICATION AVAILABILITY
SERVICE LEVEL OBJECTIVES / SERVICE LEVEL INDICATORS
ANALYTICS / DIAGNOSTICS / TOOLING
SRE fun facts:

Relies on an average of 4 data sources for their job.

Generally finds it easy to effectively predict spending when managing observability data, but struggles to stay within allocated budget.

Primarily uses log transformations, sampling, and aggregation to understand data

DATA MANAGEMENT
CONCERN

On average, the developer interacts with three products simultaneously to manage data and relies on an average of four different data sources to do their job, so their primary concern with data management is data volume continuously increasing, along with its erratic nature

SRES AND OBSERVABILITY PIPELINES

The ideal observability pipeline for a SRE ensures support for:

Cloud Services and Applications

SIEM Services and Alerting

Technology Integration into Current Systems

Deployment Frameworks / Software Orchestration (e.g. Docker, Kubernetes, etc)

Additionally, observability pipelines enable the SRE to collect, transform, and route data and provide constant system insights while enabling them to manage data volume and cost.

Mezmo provides an observability pipeline that empowers SREs. It enables data-in-motion analysis to give SREs complete access and control of their data while deriving the maximum value as they use it. Additionally, Mezmo’s best-in class log analysis features and alerting keep SREs updated on system uptime and events, driving actionability in troubleshooting use cases.
