Proactively monitor service performance with SLO alerts

Service level objectives (SLOs) are crucial for maintaining service reliability and ensuring consistent value delivery to users. Adopting SLOs is an SRE best practice that helps teams balance priorities between remediating reliability issues and developing features. Two types of SLO alerts, error budget alerts and burn rate alerts, can provide ongoing visibility into service performance relative to objectives. Error budget alerts track the consumption of a service's error budget and notify teams when it passes a threshold, while burn rate alerts detect if the service is consuming its error budget more quickly than expected. These alerts help teams make informed decisions about priorities and address potential issues before they escalate.
