slo-implementation

Define SLIs, SLOs, and error budgets to measure reliability and set alerting policies.

• Measure service reliability with SLIs
• Set reliability targets with SLOs
• Track error budgets to balance innovation and stability
• Use alerts to monitor SLO compliance

• SLI/SLO/SLA hierarchy defines measurement to contract flow
• Error budget = 1 - SLO target (in percentage)
• Error budget policies guide development velocity
• Prometheus rules automate SLI/SLO calculation and alerting
• Alerts trigger based on error budget burn rate
• SLO dashboards visualize compliance and burn rate

1. 1.Define SLI types (availability, latency, durability)
2. 2.Set SLO targets based on user expectations and business needs
3. 3.Calculate error budget and define policy actions
4. 4.Implement Prometheus recording rules for SLI/SLO computation
5. 5.Configure alerting rules for error budget burn rate and compliance
6. 6.Monitor SLO compliance in dashboards
