The infrastructure-as-code revolution in IT is also affecting database administration. With this practical book, developers, system administrators, and junior to mid-level DBAs will learn how the modern practice of site reliability engineering applies to the craft of database architecture and operations. Authors Laine Campbell and Charity Majors provide a framework for professionals looking to join the ranks of today’s database reliability engineers (DBRE).

You’ll begin by exploring core operational concepts that DBREs need to master. Then you’ll examine a wide range of database persistence options, including how to implement key technologies to provide resilient, scalable, and performant data storage and retrieval. With a firm foundation in database reliability engineering, you’ll be ready to dive into the architecture and operations of any modern database.

This book covers:

Service-level requirements and risk management
Building and evolving an architecture for operational visibility
Infrastructure engineering and infrastructure management
How to facilitate the release management process
Data storage, indexing, and replication
Identifying datastore characteristics and best use cases
Datastore architectural components and data-driven architectures

Who This Book Is For:

This book is written for anyone with an interest in the design, building, and operations of reliable data stores. Perhaps you are a software engineer, looking to broaden your knowledge of databases. You might also be a systems engineer looking to do the same. If you’re a database professional looking to develop your skill set, you will also find value here. If you are newer to the industry, this should also be able to give you a solid understanding. This book, after all, is a framework.
