here is a table of the differences between DevOps, SRE, and Platform Engineering in tabular format:

CriteriaDevOpsSREPlatform Engineering
FocusAutomating the entire software development and deployment processBuilding and maintaining reliable software systemsDesigning, building, and managing the infrastructure that supports software development
Roles and responsibilitiesDevelopers, operations engineers, security engineers, QA engineersSite reliability engineersPlatform engineers
Tools and technologiesContinuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) tools, configuration management tools, monitoring toolsMonitoring tools, incident response tools, automation toolsInfrastructure as code (IaC) tools, cloud computing platforms, containerization tools
GoalsTo shorten the software development and deployment cycle, improve reliability, and reduce costsTo build and maintain reliable software systems that can withstand failures and disruptionsTo provide a reliable and scalable infrastructure that supports software development

DevOps is a culture and practice that combines software development (Dev) and IT operations (Ops). It aims to shorten the software development and deployment cycle, improve reliability, and reduce costs. DevOps teams use a variety of tools and technologies to automate the software development and deployment process.

SRE is a discipline that incorporates aspects of software engineering and applies them to operations. SREs are responsible for building and maintaining reliable software systems. They use monitoring tools, incident response tools, and automation tools to ensure that systems are up and running and that failures are quickly resolved.

Platform engineering is a discipline that focuses on designing, building, and managing the infrastructure that supports software development. Platform engineers use IaC tools, cloud computing platforms, and containerization tools to create a reliable and scalable infrastructure that can be easily provisioned and managed.

The three disciplines are closely related and often overlap. DevOps teams may include SREs and platform engineers. The specific roles and responsibilities of each discipline may vary depending on the organization.
