Reliability

In this episode, Akshay Athalye of Reliably it Matters! speaks with Philip Sage.

In this podcast , we’re diving into the murky waters of Mean Time Between Failures, or as some of us like to call it, ‘Maybe This’ll Be Fine’. We’ll uncover why relying on MTBF can sometimes be as risky as trusting your umbrella on a windy day. But don’t worry, we’ve got you covered with some solid alternatives that won’t leave you high and dry!

Key Points
