Overview
Learn how to train site reliability engineers at your organization in both general and domain-specific subject matter. With this detailed guide from Google’s SRE team, you’ll not only learn a set of training best practices Google uses for ramping up new SREs; you’ll also explore use cases from smaller organizations that have successfully trained people for SRE (or SRE-like) functions.
To be effective, your company should purposefully design SRE training to fit both your company’s needs and your audience. While much of this report focuses on the specific experience of Google SRE, it explains the theory behind training design and presents best practices and lessons learned throughout the industry over the past several years.
