Elevator Pitch
Microservices offer a solution to the increasing complexity of software. However, the additional moving parts compounds the risk of failures. Modern software must be designed with resilience in mind. Learn how Chaos Engineering helps detect and address the impact of failures before they reach users.
Description
Microservices offer a solution for the increasing complexity of software. However, the increase in moving parts in such systems compounds the risk for failures and cascading outages. It is safe to assume that modern software will have to withstand many forms of breakage throughout their lifetime. The methodology of Chaos Engineering offers an approach to detect vulnerabilities and single points of failure before they have a noticeable impact on users.
In this session, Gabrielle Gasse will introduce the methodology of Chaos Engineering, offer tips and strategies to start and expand the use of Chaos Testing within organizations, and give practical examples from her work at xMatters.
Takeaways:
- Information about how Chaos Engineering can help build resilient software.
- Strategies to start and expand the use of Chaos Tests to identify the impact of failures in an eco-sysyem.
- Examples and lessons learned from practical experience.
