Keynote: Finding the Joy in Chaos Engineering
Talkat KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America 2019 · on Thursday, 2019-11-21· at 10:04· Exhibit Hall AB - San Diego Convention Center, Ground Level·
summary
Target describes building a resiliency capability using Gremlin and a homegrown TRAP platform to run GameDays across Kubernetes (EKS/GKE/AKS) in an environment spanning 1,800 stores and 40 DCs. Demo injects 1000 ms latency abort against a product-catalog pod on EKS and reveals unexpected coupling and slow failover. Findings include 25% outages from no autoscaling, recommendation to run CPU and network attacks (latency, packet-loss, blackhole), and a roadmap from quarterly GameDays to monthly and self-service with continuous testing and integrated incident metrics.
