QUESTION 8 OF 30
How would you define a service level indicator?
Sight reliability engineers deal with many issues related to service levels. The Google interviewer will expect you to be knowledgeable about each of these and be able to both define the term and discuss its use. As with any technical question, keep your answer brief and to the point. You should also be prepared for follow-up questions that the interviewer will use to explore the topic more deeply.
"A service-level indicator, also known as an SLI, is used to measure the level of service provided by the Google support team to their customer. SLIs are used to measure compliance with the SLOs, which defines how well the team is meeting the SLA. Common SLIs include throughput, availability, latency, and error rates."
