Summary

This talk was presented at the Utah Kubernetes Meetup.

It covers the absolute basics of what an SLO is and how to calculate them.

While most of the content is accurate the slides regarding the use of “recording rules” within prometheus can introduce race conditions that might result in unreliable calculations.

See our SLOs article for more information on this issue and how to avoid it.
