DevOps XXL: Scale-up in Large Setups with SRE
summary
Argues that DevOps now behaves like a commodity in large enterprises and that scaling requires concrete moves: deploy databases and schema changes alongside code, map value streams to cut lead time, and optimize visible bottlenecks across 100+ product teams. Recommends practical observability — not just Grafana dashboards but alerting on a few leading metrics, reusable primitives from a GitHub starter repo, a centralized observability offering for HA and multi‑tenancy, and open telemetry as the integration standard. SRE is framed as a way to structure DevOps, start simple and be data‑informed.
