/1 I recently asked 10 backend engineers about the difference between DevOps, SRE, and Platform engineering, and 0 were able to tell the difference.
To clarify these concepts, it's worth taking a closer look.
/2 The concepts of DevOps, SRE, and Platform Engineering have emerged at different times and have been developed by various individuals and organizations.
DevOps as a concept was introduced in 2009 by Patrick Debois and Andrew Shafer at the Agile conference.
/3 They sought to bridge the gap between software development and operations by promoting a collaborative culture and shared responsibility for the entire software development lifecycle.
/4 SRE, or Site Reliability Engineering, was pioneered by Google in the early 2000s to address operational challenges in managing large-scale, complex systems.
/5 Google developed SRE practices and tools, such as the Borg cluster management system and the Monarch monitoring system, to improve the reliability and efficiency of their services.
/7 The precise origins of Platform Engineering are less clear, but it is generally understood to be an extension of the DevOps and SRE practices, with a focus on delivering a comprehensive platform for product development that supports the entire business perspective.
/8 It's worth noting that while these concepts emerged at different times. They are all related to the broader trend of improving collaboration, automation, and efficiency in software development and operations.
