Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) is a crucial aspect of modern software engineering that helps companies maintain the reliability and availability of their systems. SRE focuses on ensuring that systems are designed and managed in a way that reduces downtime and improves overall performance.

Site reliability engineering, as a job role, may be performed by solo practitioners or organized in teams usually being responsible for a combination of the following within a broader engineering organization: System availability, latency, performance, efficiency, change management, monitoring, emergency response, and capacity planning. Site reliability engineers often have backgrounds in software engineering, system engineering, or system administration. Focuses of SRE include automation, system design, and improvements to system resilience. Site reliability engineering, as a set of principles and practices, can be performed by anyone. SRE is similar to security engineering in that everyone is expected to contribute to good security practices, but a company may decide to eventually staff specialists for the job. Conversely, for securing internet systems, companies may hire security engineers and to define and ensure their reliability goals, companies may hire SREs as well[citation needed]. Site reliability engineering has also been described as a specific implementation of DevOps, although they are slightly different. SRE focuses specifically on building reliable systems, whereas DevOps is more broadly focused.Although they have different focuses, some companies have rebranded their operations teams to SRE teams with little meaningful change.

With best practices like Agile and DevOps, alongside strides in technology and communication, becoming far more widespread, developers are getting more done – and client expectations are rising.

Unfortunately, the drive for faster releases has left other elements of IT management struggling to catch up. Operations team members still need to ensure that code is suitably stable for end-users, but as development continues speeding along and release dates loom, this can create a tight bottleneck. Stakeholders may be tempted to release code without properly screening it, while operations staff may insist on delaying releases even at the expense of customers and clients.

As important as speed might be in competitive industries, investing too much importance in it can create a false economy. Organizations that provide IT-powered products and services must also prioritize reliability: ensuring that end-results fulfill user expectations in terms of quality, accessibility, security, and so on. This requires the removal of silos separating different teams and stakeholders, so that the resulting culture can focus on balancing the priorities and critical tasks found across development and operations pipelines.
