This module describes how to collect, analyze, and manage event logs on IBM Cloud. It discusses the implementation of visual references of patterns and key patterns.

This module enables you to collect, analyze, and manage logs on IBM Cloud. The module also covers using IBM Log Analysis with LogDNA to configure log sources, view logs, and work with alerts. Topic 1: Identifying Key Metrics for Service Health on IBM Cloud

This lab provides hands-on practice within a simulated environment to leverage the knowledge you gained from the Identifying Key Metrics for Service Health on IBM Cloud module.

This module provides an overview of the key metrics used to measure service health. In addition, this module covers the parameters, skills, and resources required to identify the key metrics for service health on IBM Cloud.

The Performing Operational Readiness (ORR) on IBM Cloud module covers the major guidelines of an Operational Readiness Review, knowing when an Operational Readiness Review is performed and the role of a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) during an ORR review.

This lab provides hands-on practice within a simulated environment to leverage the knowledge you gained from the Monitoring of Resources and Their Utilization on IBM Cloud module.

The Monitoring Resources and Their Utilization on IBM Cloud module provides the IBM Cloud SRE insight into the types of monitoring tool resources that are available on IBM Cloud for monitoring golden signals and the relationship between monitoring and alerting. This module also covers the tools for the aggregation of log data used for issue resolution and auditing purposes.

This module covers managing backups and recoveries on IBM Cloud, including types of backups, IBM Cloud Backup services, and the difference between a backup and an archive.

The Leveraging IBM Cloud Tools, Technology, and Roles Across the SDLC module covers how to build, deploy, and manage your applications and make development and operations tasks repeatable and manageable. The module also covers how to build an interactive toolchain, after first understanding the utility of various components. Finally, the module details the roles for a Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) team as they work together to deliver a product or a microservice.

This module describes how to design and deploy automation strategies.

This module introduces Service Level Objective (SLO) and Service Level Indicator (SLI) concepts for Site Reliability Engineers.

The Employing Cost-Optimization Strategies in Cloud Management module provides IBM Cloud SREs insight into automation strategies for monitoring on IBM Cloud. The module also demonstrates the automated operations tasks and cost drivers to deploy automation.

This lab enables you to apply knowledge learned in the Identifying Root Causes for Past Incidents module.

The Incident Analysis and Developing a Balanced Action Plan to Mitigate module covers how to identify contributing factors for past incidents. The module discusses how to develop a balanced action plan to mitigate these issues to prevent them from reoccurring in the future.

This Site Reliability Engineering Principles Overview module covers the basic principles of Site Reliability Engineering. The module also covers the driving forces behind the practice and what risks affect service owners, as well as a method to mitigate those risks to improve customer satisfaction. In addition, this module covers the concept of using an error budget to control code release velocity.

The Introduction to the IBM Cloud Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) Role module reviews the high-level Site Reliability Engineering concepts. The module takes a deeper dive into the associated skills, tasks, and responsibilities required of an individual in the IBM Cloud SRE role. This module discusses Site Reliability Engineer (the role) and Site Reliability Engineering (the discipline) that can both share the acronym of SRE.

This is the introductory module of IBM Cloud SRE Professional Certification Training. This module covers how to navigate within the training, what the training is about, and how to leverage the most from the training so that you are prepared for the IBM Cloud SRE Professional Certification Test. 

This course is also available as classroom course IBM Aspera Console Administration (WT012G). This course is intended to teach the necessary knowledge and skills to install, configure, and use IBM Aspera Console.
