Error budget burn rate alerts for major outages
· 6 min read
As a software engineer, if you're reading this, for sure you already know that the error budget is defined when we select a Service Level Indicator (SLI) and for it set a target Service Level Objective (SLO) over a specific time period. If you don't, head to the "references" section below which suggests introductory resources.
How fast can we consume the error budget? This question was not easy to answer for me. That's why I'd like to share my notes.
