2023 is coming to a close and the holiday season is here, but that doesn’t mean things at Gremlin are slowing down. In fact, we’ve released a ton of new features and improvements to make testing and improving reliability even easier. Now you can run Chaos Engineering experiments in serverless environments, create custom reliability test suites, create more flexible Scenarios, and more easily identify critical components in your environment.

The CSRD is a new regulation that mandates companies operating in the European Union (EU) to disclose their ESG performance and impact.
