Presenters Savi Grover Source Conf42 SRE 2026 From Alerts to Answers: Revolutionizing SRE with Observability, AI, and Agentic Ops 🚀 The world of Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) is facing a monumental challenge: data deluge. We’ve moved from monolithic applications to sprawling microservices, a shift that has amplified our telemetry data by a staggering 100x. Yet, despite this flood of information, SREs are drowning in noise, experiencing alert fatigue, and finding themselves information-poor when it truly matters. The core problem? Traditional monitoring alerts us to symptoms, but leaves us to manually hunt for the causes. ...

Presenters Prajakta Talathi Source Conf42 SRE 2026 🚀 Beyond Accuracy: Operating Predictive Analytics with SRE Precision In the high-stakes world of education finance, a model is only as good as the decisions it enables. Imagine shipping a model with stellar test results, only to watch it stumble in the real world when student funding and tuition timelines are on the line. I am Prajakta Talathi, and I work at the intersection of data strategy, analytics, and business execution. Today, we explore how to move beyond simply shipping models to operating them as reliable services using Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) principles. ...
