Claim 14:
15. A system for testing resiliency of a server computer environment, the system comprising:
a subset of server computer resources allocated to a client user within a distributed server computer platform to form the server computer environment with one or more hardware computing processors;
a memory storage device configured to receive and store instructions for directing the one or more hardware computing processors to conduct processing operations; and
a communication interface of the distributed server computer platform, the communication interface being configured to receive input from the client user and, in response to the input, generate instructions executable to cause the one or more hardware computing processors to instantiate an ephemeral fault injector program to implement a resiliency experiment within the server computer environment, wherein the ephemeral fault injector program is immune to external access and control and configured to self-terminate within the server computer environment upon reaching a defined state of the resiliency experiment.
