Chaos Engineering with Spring Boot

on YouTube ↗52m

" summary

Introduces practical Chaos Engineering by adding the Chaos Monkey for Spring Boot dependency (ships dormant until profile enabled), which wraps Spring beans with a service watcher proxy and offers five assaults: latency, exceptions, JVM kill, memory assault, and scheduler. Experiments run via actuator endpoints or POST requests that set level (e.g., every 10th request) and timing; metrics report total requests vs assaulted. Recommends start in staging, define blast radius, add monitoring and load generation; demo approach works without messing with infrastructure.
