SRE vs. DevOps: What’s the Difference Between Them?

DevOps and Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) are two practices that aim to improve product development and reliability. While DevOps focuses on the integration of development, IT operations, quality, and security with Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD), SRE is responsible for implementing and automating DevOps practices to reduce incidents and improve reliability and scalability. Key differences between the two include their focus, team structure, and tools used. Both practices aim to enhance the release cycle and achieve better product reliability by connecting development and operation teams while sharing similar responsibilities.
