Lesson 3: SLO Enforcement in Practice

Use SLOs to drive scaling, alerting, and design trade‑offs.

Lesson 3: SLO Enforcement in Practice

SLO‑Driven Operations

Use SLOs to set thresholds for alerts and capacity changes.

Sruja: Model SLOs & Validate

API = system "API Server" {
  Gateway = container "Gateway" {
    scale { metric "req/s" min 500 max 5000 }
  }
}

availability { target "99.95%" window "30 days" }
latency { p95 "150ms" window "7 days" }

throughput { target "3000 req/s" window "1 hour" }

Practice

  • Define SLOs for your critical path; ensure scale bounds meet throughput.
  • Set alert thresholds aligned to SLO windows.
