Thrive in chaos

Failure isn’t a matter of if, it’s a matter of when. You spend countless hours designing, planning, and building robust and resilient systems. Even with all that effort, it is impossible to prevent all failures.

When the inevitable happens at 3:00 AM, do you know how your self-healing architecture works as designed in production?

This is where Chaos Engineering comes in. With Chaos Engineering, inject real failures into production systems to validate that they behave as designed. Does this mean we just start turning off random things?

No, instead we take a scientific approach, where we create an experiment to test whether the system behaves as designed. When you start with Chaos Engineering, you are no longer just designing resilient systems and hoping that everything works when the inevitable failure happens.

Now when there is a failure at 3:00 AM, you are prepared and know how your production systems will behave.

With Chaos Engineering:
- Proactively inject failures to ensure uptime during actual failures;
- Know how your systems behave during failures;
- Don't hope your failover strategy works; know it works in production.
