It's intended for any software developer or system administrator that wants to become a site reliability engineer. Jeremy and I took this journey, so we have many things to share. I received five copies from Packt but decided to buy another copy of this book. You know, to test the system's reliability. It was interesting to see the first copies were printed in the UK while this last one was published in the US. The content is exactly the same except for the last page, which has this information about where it was printed. Nevertheless, people started asking me why I was buying my own book. Of course, I jokingly said I needed to do so by contract to fulfill its clauses. You should see their faces. Review: Comprehensive guide to everything SRE - The term "SRE" has been an evolving idea for a long time. I've also found it hard to encapsulate what it completely entails in one place. It's clear the Authors have "been there and done that" with regard to building, managing, and maintaining large sites and systems. You can go as far down the rabbit hole of reliability as you like, but this book gives a no-nonsense guide that explains the trade-offs. I had a good few "I hadn't thought of that" moments that made it worthwhile. If you're interested in understanding a big picture of the SRE world, this book is a great way to help you get there. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,099,269 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #101 in Network Storage & Retrieval Administration #523 in Computer Systems Analysis & Design (Books) #620 in Software Testing | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 10 Reviews | ## Images ![Becoming a Rockstar SRE: Electrify your site reliability engineering mindset to build reliable, resilient, and efficient systems - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61h8RTPuMsL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bought another copy *by R***I on May 25, 2023* Yes, I co-authored this book and believe we did well!
