In Chaos Engineering: Crash test your applications you’ll learn to design and execute controlled failure experiments that reveal the hidden problems in your software. Using a toolbox of open source tools, you’ll inject system-shaking failures at every level—from your Docker containers, to your Kubernetes deployment, to the UI. You’ll learn Linux monitoring for observing system metrics and evaluating your results, and even how to apply Chaos Engineering to make your human teams more reliable and resilient to handling failures. Best of all, all tools and examples come with a downloadable Linux VM image, letting you easily experiment without risk to your own systems.

2. Auto engineers test the safety of
a car by intentionally crashing it
and carefully observing the
results.
Rather than just looking for code
bugs and errors, chaos
engineering sees how your
software responds to calamity,
including partial infrastructure
outages, hardware failure, and
other major pitfalls that can
befall a production system.

3. In Chaos Engineering: Crash test your
applications, you’ll learn to run your
applications and infrastructure
through a series of tests that
simulate real-life failures. You’ll
maximize the benefits of chaos
engineering by learning to think
like a chaos engineer, and how to
design the proper experiments to
ensure the reliability of your
software.

5. What people are saying
about the book:
The author’s writing is both
engaging and entertaining,
meaning you never find
yourself wondering when
you wish to continue
reading. Certainly worth
picking up!
-Neil Croll
Excellent concept and
execution! The author
provides a reasonable
approach to something
that seems terribly
complicated from the
outside.
-Burk Hufnagel

6. About the author:
Mikolaj Pawlikowski has been
practicing chaos engineering for four
years, beginning with a large
distributed Kubernetes-based
microservices platform at Bloomberg.
He is the creator of the Kubernetes
Chaos Engineering tool PowerfulSeal,
and the networking visibility tool
