Cloud Native Chaos Engineering with LitmusChaos - Karthik S, Umasankar Mukkara & Udit Gaurav, ChaosNative; Saiyam Pathak, Civo

The discipline of chaos engineering has evolved since it was introduced by Netflix a decade ago, mostly as a result of the cloud-native paradigm and the proliferation of Kubernetes as the universal control plane for today's distributed architecture. While the essence and basic principles of chaos remains the same, the way it is operationalized has undergone a paradigm shift, not limited to - the faults themselves, the environments where they are executed, the persona carrying out the experiments, as well as the methods to run them. LitmusChaos is a framework that has been designed to address these newer requirements and enable users to proactively identify weaknesses and improve resilience in their cloud-native setup. This session provides a deep-dive of the project, its goals and how it achieves them.
