Google Cloud offers a comprehensive suite of services and products designed to meet various computing needs, ranging from compute, storage, and databases to networking, AI, and security. Each service comes with defined Service Level Agreements (SLAs) that guarantee specific performance metrics, such as uptime, availability, durability, and latency. Continue reading GCP Services SLAs
Google Cloud Platform (GCP) offers robust service monitoring tools that allow organizations to define and track Service Level Objectives (SLOs). Two primary types of SLOs in GCP are Request-Based SLOs and Window-Based SLOs. Each type has distinct characteristics and applications, catering to different monitoring needs. Understanding the differences between these SLOs is essential for selecting the right approach to monitor and maintain the performance and reliability of various services. Continue reading Request-Based SLOs vs Window-Based SLOs in GCP
In the realm of Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), monitoring the performance and reliability of services is crucial for ensuring a seamless user experience and maintaining operational excellence. The “Four Golden Signals” — Latency, Traffic, Saturation, and Errors — provide a comprehensive framework for assessing system health. This article delves into each of these signals, exploring their significance, methodologies for monitoring, and real-life examples.
