How to run fault injection tests on AWS managed services
Part of the Gremlin Office Hours series: A monthly deep dive with Gremlin experts. Join us for the next one→ https://www.gremlin.com/officehours
Fully-managed SaaS services offer incredible scalability and accessibility, but at a cost: they’re also single points of failure. If your application depends on a SaaS service and the service fails, guess who your customers will blame? We need to design applications to anticipate and work around managed service failures, but how do we do that without having to wait for the service to fail?
In this Office Hours session, we’ll show you how you can recreate a failure in a managed service provider using Gremlin’s fault injection tools. You’ll learn how to run experiments that replicate SaaS outages in a safe, controlled, reversible way, while only impacting the services you want to test. We’ll also show you how you can easily choose from a pre-populated list of managed services directly in the Gremlin web app.
Discover:
- The challenges with testing managed services
- How to track managed services as dependencies
- How to run reliability tests on managed services
