An organization wants to introduce a new image recognition login system. What should the organization do to follow SRE principles?

The correct answer is A. Roll out the new system to a subset of employees to test it out.. Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) principles emphasize minimizing the blast radius of changes through gradual, controlled rollouts. Rolling out a new login system to a subset of employees first allows the team to observe real-world behavior, detect errors, and iterate safely bef

Question

An organization wants to introduce a new image recognition login system. What should the organization do to follow SRE principles?

Options

  • ARoll out the new system to a subset of employees to test it out.
  • BRoll out the new system to all employees to collect as much data as possible.
  • CAvoid rolling out the new system because it may have security flaws.
  • DAvoid rolling out the new system because it may violate privacy policy.

Explanation

Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) principles emphasize minimizing the blast radius of changes through gradual, controlled rollouts. Rolling out a new login system to a subset of employees first allows the team to observe real-world behavior, detect errors, and iterate safely before a full deployment - this is commonly called a canary release or phased rollout. Option B (rolling out to everyone immediately) maximizes risk. Options C and D (avoiding rollout entirely) contradict SRE's principle of embracing change through safe, measured releases rather than stagnation.
