Abstract:
Chaos testing has become a popular approach to conducting reliability experiments on distributed systems, but can it be used to discover issues as low level as the kernel? In this talk we present a case study using chaos testing to uncover scaling issues from an unexpected source. You will learn about wide ranging investigative techniques from the cluster to the node level.
Gary Liku, Bloomberg LP
