Name: TBDevOps monthly: Chaos Engineering: The 5 W’s - Jacob Plicque III, Gremlin.com
Start: 2020-02-24T18:30:00-05:00

Location: Wolters Kluwer

In this talk, Jacob Plicque (Chaos Engineer & Resilience Coach, former Senior SRE @ Fanatics) will answer the 5 Ws (who, what, where, when, & why) of Chaos Engineering.

You’ll Learn:
* The systematic way to begin Chaos Engineering
* The value of running chaos experiments to build more reliable systems and confidence in your remediation processes.
* How other companies are using Chaos Engineering—and the positive results they’ve seen creating reliable distributed systems with CE

Chaos Engineering is NOT:
* Applying failure modes randomly
* Applying failures to your entire infrastructure straight away
* Applying failure on systems without communication
* Creating a one-off fix to be run once and then abandoned

Chaos Engineering IS:
* Applying failures carefully, and with an explicit hypothesis
* Starting small and growing the blast radius
* Communicating plans clearly with all stakeholders
* Designing a well-defined practice that requires constant attention
