Are SRE and DevOps engineers the same?

SRE (Site Reliability Engineer) and DevOps engineers both focus on improving software deployment and system reliability, but their roles differ; SREs typically emphasize reliability, monitoring, and automation using tools like Prometheus and Kubernetes, while DevOps engineers focus on integrating development and operations processes to enable continuous delivery. Both roles require strong scripting skills and collaboration across teams, but SREs often have a more specialized focus on system stability and incident response.
