DevOps and site reliability engineering (SRE) teams aim to deliver software faster and with higher quality. But, manual steps — such as reviewing test results and addressing production issues resulting from performance, resiliency, security, or functional issues — often hinder these efforts.

When it comes to site reliability engineering (SRE) initiatives adopting DevOps practices, developers and operations teams frequently find themselves at odds with one another. Too many SLOs create complexity for DevOps. SREs can then use SLOs for release quality checks, such as big bang, blue/green , and canary testing.
