SRE in the Cloud
Learn how to put SRE principles into practice by leveraging cloud technology. Implement SRE in your organization through tooling, hands-on tutorials, videos, blogs, and other resources.
Simplify your SRE journey with cloud native tooling
Balance development velocity and reliability
Manage reliability and drive alignment between developers and operators with baked-in SRE best practices. Create Service-Level Indicators (SLI), set Service-Level Objectives (SLO), and track errors easily with Service Monitoring. Out-of-the-box metric dashboards are available to help you quickly view and analyze service health.
Reduce toil through built-in integrations
One integrated view across metrics, uptime monitoring, dashboards, and alerts helps with faster resolution and in context observability. You also get access to metrics, traces, and logs with zero setup. Connect to tools you love like PagerDuty to troubleshoot incidents quickly across hybrid and multicloud environments. Near real-time ingestion latency and terabyte per-second ingestion rate ensures you can perform real-time log management and analysis at scale.
Become proactive about observability using open APIs
Leverage open observability tooling to instrument your applications. OpenTelemetry is fully integrated with Cloud Operations, so you can collect and export data from cloud-native applications, Specifically, Cloud Trace allows developers to instrument and export applications with OpenTelemetry for faster incident resolution.

2021 Accelerate State of DevOps Report
In this year's report, we broadened our inquiry into operations, expanding from an analysis of service availability into the more general category of reliability. This year's survey introduced several items inspired by SRE best practices. In analyzing the results, we found evidence that teams who excel at these modern operational practices are 1.8 times more likely to report better business outcomes.
