Using AI to help with SRE, ops, etc.: The problem, he said, is that Claude “will get wrong correlation versus causation.” It’s like a new joiner on the team, they will think “oh, it’s a capacity problem, when actually you lost your cache.” “This is why we can’t trust LLMs for incident response,” said Palcuie.…

It’s real, enterprises just need to do the CISO work and SRE work
After using Claude more and more for task in my personal life, my current zinger analyst take on the Squawk Box would be: “OpenAI talks about business strategy, Anthropic just does it.” It’s really getting close to a sci-fi personal assistant. It takes A LOT of work to get your rig (or “harness”) setup, and…

Link: How to Monitor the SRE Golden Signals
[Summary from the post of metrics to use:] Rate — Request rate, in requests/sec Errors — Error rate, in errors/sec Latency — Response time, including queue/wait time, in milliseconds. Saturation — How overloaded something is, which is related to utilization but more directly measured by things like queue depth (or sometimes concurrency). As a queue measurement, this becomes non-zero when you are saturated,…

Link: Serverless Impacts on Business, Process and Culture
‘Sharples said the main interest stems from an enterprise love of microservices, where incremental delivery, agility and faster delivery are being embraced. “But we see adopters struggle with the operational complexity of managing and monitoring distributed systems, and that is where serverless has gotten their attention. You get the microservices benefits, but from a developer…

Link: Splunk acquires VictorOps to take it – and you – into site reliability engineering
“Adding these tools to Splunk’s roster, Mann said, means it can now monitor apps, provide an environment in which to fix them and allow the deeper investigations that figure out root cause of problems and allow re-designs of infrastructure and code to stop them recurring.” Original source: Splunk acquires VictorOps to take it – and…
