What it is

Uses Python to build your own AI SRE agents and automation tools.

Real use case example

"A solo developer at a small e-commerce site uses opensre to automate alerting for their website, reducing downtime by 90%. They set up a system to monitor server performance using Datadog, and when an issue is detected, it triggers an incident response automation created with opensre, which notifies the team via Grafana. This allows them to identify and resolve the issue before customers are affected."
