Chaos engineering for apps that cannot tolerate silent netsplits — from Thomson Reuters Eikon Messenger experience.
Story
- Netflix Chaos Monkey randomly kills production processes; we needed the same before production
- Spin up multi-VM / Docker topologies on a developer laptop
- Script NIC failures, host churn, latency between replicas (MySQL/Redis)
- Push the same suite into Jenkins and cloud VMs even when prod is bare metal
- Cut release-cycle risk by making ops confidence automatic
Audience takeaways
Bulletproof middleware and microservices with integration tests that actually model datacenter failure.
