Data SLO basics
Hours thresholds you can put in a runbook.
The problem
“Data should be fresh” is not an SLO. Hours, owners, and breach behavior are.
The outcome
Write freshness SLOs as thresholds + severity + owner — then monitor them mechanically.
SLO
Hours to update
Owner
Named human
Breach
Calm alert
What you get
Separate warn vs critical
Give humans a chance before fire.
Review monthly
SLOs rot when meetings change.
Contracts come later
Targets without owners are wallpaper.
