Chaos Engineering and Litmuschaos | by Supratip Banerjee | Sep, 2021 | Medium

admin 3 weeks ago in

Previously, software systems were run in highly regulated settings on-premise and overseen by a sysadmin army. Today, cloud migration is unrelenting; the stage has totally altered. Systems are no longer monolithic and localized; instead, they rely on a network of globalized, decoupled systems that function in concert, frequently in the form of ethereal microservices. It is hardly surprising that Site Reliability Engineers have gained importance…

Understanding User Management and Authentication in LitmusChaos | by Saranya Jena | Litmus-Chaos | Aug, 2021 | Medium

admin 1 month ago in

In this post, I will be explaining how user management and authentication are done in LitmusChaos. LitmusChaos is a Cross-Cloud Chaos Orchestration framework for practicing chaos engineering in cloud-native environments. LitmusChaos 2.0 provides a new way of chaos engineering performed by the users. LitmusChaos itself is composed of microservices. And we made sure that adding the features for 2.0 seamlessly integrates the additional microservices in…

Restricting Access in LitmusChaos | by Sarthak Jain | Aug, 2021 | Medium

admin 1 month ago in

Access restriction, suggested by the name, refers to controlling the access level of a user for any resource as per their role in an organisation or project.For example, a premium Spotify user will have access to download any song and play it offline, whereas a non-premium user cannot download the songs. Giving access to everything to everyone can be very vulnerable. Imagine google not restricting…

GCP VM Disk Loss Experiment for LitmusChaos | by Neelanjan Manna | Litmus-Chaos | Jul, 2021 | Medium

admin 2 months ago in

In this beginner-friendly blog, we’ll be going through the GCP VM Disk Loss experiment for LitmusChaos. GCP VM Disk Loss experiment causes detachment of a non-boot persistent storage disk from a GCP VM instance for a specified duration of time and later re-attaches the disk to its respective VM instance. The broad objective of this experiment is to extend the principles of cloud-native chaos engineering…

Introduction to Cloud-Native Chaos Engineering and Litmus | by Stuti Mishra | Jul, 2021 | Medium

admin 2 months ago in

Short answer, Downtimes are expensive both in terms of money and reputation.Chaos experiments are the only way to truly see how your system functions during an outage. It allows teams to scale quickly without sacrificing the underlying reliability of their services. What is resilience? Resilience is the system’s ability to stay afloat when a fault happens. It can be restarted and scaled easily, overcomes such…

Litmus 2.0 in Azure Kubernetes Service | Chaos Engineering | by Akash | Medium

admin 3 months ago in

This is a quick tutorial on how to get started with LitmusChaos 2.0 in Azure Kubernetes Services. We will first create an AKS Cluster, followed by Installing LitmusChaos 2.0 on the cluster and then executing a simple pre-defined chaos workflow using LitmusChaos. LitmusChaos is a toolset to do cloud-native chaos engineering. It provides tools to orchestrate chaos on Kubernetes to help SREs find weaknesses in…

Using Fault-Injection to Improve our new Runtime Platform’s Reliability | by Nikos Katirtzis | Expedia Group Technology | Jul, 2021...

admin 3 months ago in

At Expedia Group™, our platform teams are building the next generation of our runtime platform which is based on Kubernetes and uses Kubernetes Cluster Federation (KubeFed). One of the areas that the Site Reliability Engineering team is looking after is fault-injection / Chaos Engineering. The goal is to improve the reliability of services and platforms by injecting failures in a controlled way and assessing and…

From a Newbie in Software Engineering to a Graduated LFX-Mentee | by Debabrata Panigrahi | Jun, 2021 | Medium

admin 4 months ago in

I’m a junior undergraduate majoring in Biomedical Engineering in the Department of Biotechnology and Medical Engineering at the National Institute of Technology Rourkela, India. For someone who started to code only because I was fascinated by it, it was all a journey of self-learning, filled with various adversities. But when I started with open-source contributions, it was all very beginner-friendly and I came across a…
