LEARNING PATH
Site Reliability Engineer
Turn user expectations into measurable reliability: operate Linux services, automate safely, observe outcomes, control overload, and coordinate verified recovery.
What you will be able to do
- Diagnose host and network behavior and write bounded operational automation.
- Use service evidence to distinguish user impact from internal symptoms.
- Define objectives, error budgets, and actionable multi-window alert decisions.
- Plan capacity and protect dependencies with bounded queues, retries, and circuit breakers.
- Coordinate incident ownership, timelines, mitigation, updates, and measurable recovery.
- Demonstrate real HTTP overload protection and safe application-data restoration in two assessed projects.
Work through each subject’s free foundations, then its practical course before moving to the next subject. This is a recommended sequence; foundations can be skipped with acknowledgment on the course page. Practical-course prerequisites still apply. Previously saved curricula and purchased access stay as they were when you added them.
