As a result, site reliability has emerged as a critical success metric for many organizations. The following three metrics are commonly used to measure success: Service-level agreements (SLAs). These metrics are the factors and service levels that must be achieved for each activity, function, and process to deliver on the SLA.

Enterprises now have access to myriad metrics they can track and measure, but an abundance of choice doesn’t equal actionable insight. Indeed, 54% of SREs say they handle too many metrics, making it increasingly difficult to find the most relevant ones for a particular service, according to the Dynatrace State of SRE Report.

SREs use Service-Level Indicators (SLI) to see the complete picture of service availability, latency, performance, and capacity across various systems, especially revenue-critical systems. Additionally, you can easily use any previously defined metrics and SLOs from your environments.

The common way to deal with this is to measure percentiles, and track the 90%, 99% response times for example. For example lets say you have a 99% within 2 seconds SLA, and your current 99%ile measured over one minute is 1 second. There is no way to model how much more traffic you can send to that system before it exceeds it’s SLA.

For example, ensuring maximum reliability may come at the cost of being able to more rapidly deploy future services. SLIs are the actual performance metrics of your services. For example, if your SLO states that your uptime must be 99.9%, the actual SLI must meet or exceed that performance metric in order meet that specific SLO.
