A list of my chaos engineering related blog posts and open-source projects.


Series on chaos engineering

This is a collection of three articles on chaos engineering that present and discuss the different phases of the chaos engineering process.

Part 1: The art of breaking things purposefully

In Part 1 of this series, I introduce chaos engineering and explain how it helps uncover and fix unknowns in your system before they become outages in production; and also how it fosters positive cultural change inside organizations.


Part 2: Planning your first experiment

In Part 2, I discuss areas to invest in to start designing your first chaos engineering experiments and pick up the right hypothesis.


Part 3: Failure Injection — Tools and Methods

In Part 3, I focus on the experiment itself and present a collection of tools and methods that cover the broad spectrum of failure injection necessary for running chaos engineering experiments.
