Choosing the Right Path for SLO Adoption

Service Level Objectives (SLOs) have become essential for effective reliability management, but choosing the right path for implementation is crucial. Teams must decide whether to build their own SLO infrastructure, leverage SLO features in existing monitoring tools, or invest in a dedicated SLO platform. Each option has its own set of challenges, and making the wrong choice can lead to wasted resources, delayed results, and even a failed SLO program.

In this session, we will cover:

  • Resource Investment: Both building and buying an SLO solution come with significant costs. Are you ready to invest the time and money into the right path for your organization?
  • Implementation Timeline & Compatibility: Speed matters, but rushing can backfire. Can your team afford delays, and will the solution seamlessly integrate with your existing infrastructure?
  • SLO Creation & Management: The true value of SLOs lies in their usability. Will your team adopt and maintain them effectively, or will complexity derail your efforts?
  • Risk of Failure: Getting it wrong can do more than just waste time and resources—it could undermine team morale and create resistance to future SLO initiatives.
