TL;DR: If you need help from SRE but do not know which team is responsible for your question, just open a generic task on Phabricator in the SRE project and our Clinic Duty person of the week will route it.
Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) is responsible for availability, performance, monitoring, emergency response, infrastructure security, and capacity planning plus the maintenance of software used for that purpose. This is similar to what in many other organizations is handled by an Operations or System Administration team. SRE treats computer operations as a software problem and applies automation wherever possible. The foundation has a number of subteams with SRE, each responsible for different areas. Check here to see how to get in touch with those teams and here for a more detailed team structure.
- SRE Data Center Operations - all things related to Data Centers, hardware maintenance and purchases
- SRE Data Persistence - Databases and Object storage (MariaDB and Swift)
- SRE Infrastructure Foundations - Automation and Networking (cumin, netbox, puppet, spicerack)
- SRE Observability - Monitoring and Logging (Prometheus/Grafana and ElasticSearch, plus some Kafka)
- SRE Service Operations - Mediawiki Operations and Supporting Services (Kubernetes, memcached, redis, Infrastructure for: Gitlab, OTRS, Phabricator)
- SRE Traffic - Caching and DNS (ATS, varnish, GenDNS, wikidough)
