The intersection of observability and reliability has largely been the domain of specialists for practical implementation. How can one democratize these techniques to put them in the hands of a thousand engineers at once?

At Zendesk we developed simple algorithms and practical approaches for implementing SLIs, SLOs, and Error Budgets at scale using a number of observability tools. This talk will show the approaches developed and how we were able to manage observability instrumentation across dozens of teams quickly in a complex ecosystem (CDN, UI, middleware, backend, queues, dbs, queues, etc)."
