IBM’s Principles of Chaos Engineering
summary
IBM codifies chaos engineering into principles and a 10-step methodology that aims to give evidence and confidence to meet SLOs and SLAs for 40,000 mission-critical workloads. The claim is production-focused: start in dev but strive for production, contain impact with kill switches and fallbacks, measure with observability and traces, then measure, learn, improve. Practices include failure-oriented testing via scripted injections, testing across the transaction critical path, increasing complexity gradually, and socializing changes to win regulated clients.
