The shift from traditional testing to chaos engineering marks a revolution in building reliable systems.

This session unpacks the concept’s history and role in ensuring system resilience. We’ll look at some of the approaches to chaos engineering, before looking at Chaos Engineering as a Service with Amazon’s Fault Injection Service.

You’ll leave with insights into crafting and running Fault Injection Service experiment templates, plus a live demo looking at how we can now test serverless code in AWS with Chaos engineering.

Starting out in a very traditional background in the data-centres of the fabled M4 corridor, Simon eventually realised it was time to give up on the problems of manually babysitting servers, racks and UPS's and migrated to the Cloud (and in the process, the Scottish Highlands) and now works to enable clients to transition their workloads, processes and swag requirements to the same route.

Simon is a member of the AWS Community builder program, and these days enjoys coaching and mentoring as much getting hands-on with code, automation and head-scratching.
