They examine the similarities and differences and how to use the two approaches together to build better software platforms. The show starts with a review of basic terms; definitions of roles, similarities and differences; skillsets for each role, including which is technically more demanding. They discuss tooling and metrics that SRE and Devops teams focus on, including whether custom automation scripts are more a DevOps or an SRE stronghold.
