The idea of deliberately introducing failures into your systems to test for weaknesses—what’s known as chaos engineering—can be intimidating. But what if you could evaluate resilience without actually breaking anything?

Chaos engineering shouldn’t be about throwing your systems into disarray, but about implementing intentional, manageable disruptions or degradations to ensure resilience. The key to success lies in integrating Internet Performance Monitoring (IPM) into your CI/CD pipeline. This method allows you to pinpoint bottlenecks, continuously test and improve your systems, and enhance reliability as early as the development stage. We’ll show you how to use Internet Performance Monitoring as a powerful tool to strengthen your systems against unexpected failures or degradations to ensure seamless user experiences.

Key Takeaways:

- Learn how to build resilient internet-facing systems through a IPM-informed approach to CI/CD
- Explore how chaos engineering can drive reliability in the face of disruptions
- Discover how techniques such as incorporating experience level objectives (XLOs) and proactive testing can make your life better
