Each section includes detailed explanations, ensuring you not only know the answers but also deeply understand the underlying reasoning.

What you will gain:

Solid understanding of SRE fundamentals: Define SRE, its role, principles, and best practices; master SLIs, SLOs, SLAs, error budgets, and toil reduction.
Proficiency in Infrastructure and Automation: Hands-on experience with IaC tools (Terraform, CloudFormation), configuration management (Ansible, Puppet, Chef), container orchestration (Kubernetes), and CI/CD pipelines. Learn about effective monitoring and alerting systems, and disaster recovery planning.
Expertise in Reliability Engineering: Master incident management, post-incident reviews (PIRs), root cause analysis (RCA), change management, capacity planning, scalability, and chaos engineering.
Performance Optimization Mastery: Utilize tools like New Relic and Datadog to identify and resolve performance bottlenecks. Understand load testing, stress testing, and advanced performance tuning strategies, including caching and CDNs.
Security and Compliance Confidence: Explore secure coding practices, vulnerability scanning, access control, data encryption, and regulatory compliance (GDPR, HIPAA).
Stronger Soft Skills: Enhance your communication, collaboration, conflict resolution, and stakeholder management abilities—all crucial for SRE success.

This course isn't just about memorizing answers; it's about building a robust understanding of SRE principles and practices that will set you apart. Enroll today and transform your interview preparation!

Curriculum

Practice Tests: Core SRE Concepts

This section features six comprehensive practice tests, each focusing on a different critical area of Site Reliability Engineering. The "Fundamental Concepts" test delves into the definition and role of SRE, key principles, best practices, SLIs, SLOs, SLAs, error budgets, and toil reduction strategies. The "Infrastructure and Automation" test covers Infrastructure as Code (IaC), configuration management tools, orchestration (Kubernetes), CI/CD pipelines, monitoring and alerting, and disaster recovery. The "Reliability Engineering" test examines incident management, post-incident reviews, root cause analysis, change management, capacity planning, and chaos engineering. The "Performance Optimization" test focuses on performance monitoring, bottleneck identification and resolution, load and stress testing, and advanced optimization strategies. The "Security and Compliance" test covers security best practices, access control, data encryption, and regulatory compliance. Finally, the "Soft Skills and Collaboration" test assesses your understanding of communication, teamwork, conflict resolution, and stakeholder management within an SRE context. Each test provides numerous questions to thoroughly assess your understanding of each domain.
