| Increasing the collaboration between SREs and Developers | Uma Mukkara | 26m |
Most orgs (80–90%) run incidents by best guess; recommendation is to make dev participation mandatory, automate SLO/SLO checks before deploy, and run chaos… | ||
| Achieving DORA outcomes by building reliability | Steve McGhee | 30m |
Argues that high reliability comes from software and platform design not magic infrastructure, recommends measuring the four DORA metrics (use Four Keys for… | ||
| What if Cardinality was free? | Ruchir Jha | 20m |
Observability vendors charging by time series drives metrics and tag pruning; the proposal makes cardinality free so every metric keeps full dimensions. A… | ||
| AIOps, are we there yet? | Thais Melo | 24m |
Claims that simple statistics plus cohort-based baselines and clustering of multiple metrics catch variance and precursors to outages at scale, requiring… | ||
| The RunWhen Authors Community: Royalties For Runbooks | Kyle Forster | 31m |

| TDD: Are you sure about that? | Sebastian Kurzynowski | 31m |
Claims that writing tests first forces clearer requirements, reduces debugging and enables safe refactors: a link feature in a fintech project takes three days… | ||
| Rock around the clock (synchronization | Lerna Ekmekcioglu | 28m |
Claim: deploying high precision clocks (Clockwork's software implementation of Stanford HPTS ideas) and hardware like PTP-capable NICs lets systems measure… | ||
| How Workload Rightsizing Increases Availability | Erwin Daria | 30m |
Storm Forge deploys Optimize Live to train a per-container ML model on metrics (CPU, memory, requests, limits) with a 28‑day lookback, auto-generating k8s… | ||
| The Journey of Reliability: Why bother at all? | Piyush Verma | 26m |
Claims a practical observability maturity model tied to concrete stages and tooling rather than buzzwords, with a proven build of a time‑series data warehouse… | ||
