My DevOps team are actually SREs, and our SRE team are just webdevs who are on call. It’s pretty ridiculous.

- geodel 5y agoCould be that someone in management understood site reliability as website reliability and decided to put web devs on call.
- dvtrn 5y agoAs an SRE, I’m starting to think the misunderstanding of SRE tradecraft is probably more pronounced than the misunderstandings of Devops tradecraft. The risks definitely feel higher. I’m six months into a new SRE role and it really feels like instead of doing any kind of engineering I’m instead just getting “overflow pipeline work from the rest of engineering that the Devops team was too busy for” and I’m already looking for the door.
