Site Reliability Engineering Foundation® (SREF) Certification Training

The Site Reliability Engineering Foundation® (SREF) Certification Training introduces the principles and practices that enable an organization to scale critical services reliably and economically. Introducing a site-reliability dimension requires organizational re-alignment, a new focus on engineering & automation, and adopting a range of new working paradigms. The course highlights the evolution of SRE and its future direction. It equips participants with the practices, methods, and tools to engage people across the organization involved in reliability and stability evidenced using real-life scenarios and case stories. Upon completion of the course, participants will have tangible takeaways to leverage when back in the office, such as understanding, setting, and tracking Service Level Objectives (SLOs).
