1. A component for a gas turbine engine, comprising:
a surface; and
a set of tiles secured to the surface at first interfaces between the set of tiles and the surface and secured at second interfaces between each of the set of tiles, wherein the set of tiles conform to the surface, wherein the set of tiles in combination define a coating system on the surface that includes an environmental barrier coating and/or a thermal barrier coating, wherein the surface includes a silicon-based ceramic material and the set of tiles include one or more rare earth silicate materials, wherein gaps are provided in at least some of the first interfaces between the set of tiles and the surface that are configured to provide for relative movement between the set of tiles and the surface and thereby provide stress relief to the coating system.
