SHOW NOTES:

• Nobl9 Homepage
• The SLO Book - Implementing Service Level Objectives

Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. Congratulations on the launch of Nobl9. Before we get into that, let’s talk about your background and what got you focused on SREs and SLOs.

Topic 2 - We’ve spoken about the role of SRE quite a bit the last few years, but not as much about SLOs - and how to achieve them. Paint us some broad brush strokes about the world of SLOs today, and how they are different from SLAs or other commonly used measurements and metrics. 

Topic 3 - So how do we start taking the SLO concepts and start making them actionable?

Topic 4 - How does a move to a SLO-centric model change the AppDev or the Ops teams?   

Topic 5 - Is there a “low-hanging fruit” in an adoption of SLO-centric capabilities, or does it take quite a bit of top-down and bottom-up change? 

Topic 6 - What’s a good way to get started with the Nobl9 platform?
