Service Level Objectives
SLOs are target values or ranges for service levels that are measured by Service Level Indicators (SLIs). They represent the reliability goals for your services.
Why SLOs Matter
SLOs help teams balance reliability with innovation, make data-driven decisions, and establish clear expectations with stakeholders about service quality.
Key Benefits
Better incident response, improved prioritization, clearer communication with customers, and a shared understanding of acceptable reliability levels.
