Chaos Engineering vs. Traditional Testing: What's the Difference? | Resilience Testing | Harness

Stop treating system outages like surprises and start preparing for them. While traditional software testing is the bedrock of development, using unit, integration, and regression tests to verify that code meets specific requirements, it only accounts for what we expect to happen. Chaos Engineering takes a different approach by shifting the focus from bug prevention to system resilience. Instead of asking "does this work?", Chaos Engineering asks "how does this survive?" by injecting real-world turbulence like network latency or pod failures directly into production-like environments.

The Modern Messaging Primer: Navigating the Shift from Legacy Middleware to Open Source Innovation

The shift from legacy middleware to open-source innovation promises agility and cost savings, but introduces the 'Modernization Tax'—operational complexity that requires new approaches to observability, governance, and management across hybrid messaging environments.

KubeVirt Networking: How to Preserve VM IP Addresses During Migration

Organisations are re-evaluating their VM infrastructure. The economics have shifted, the tooling has matured, and the case for running two separate platforms, one for containers, one for VMs, is getting harder to justify.

What EMEA Infrastructure Leaders Are Saying About Security, Compliance, & Hybrid IT

Over the past few months, Puppet has partnered with Bryxx to host a series of leadership lunches across Europe, bringing together infrastructure, operations, and security leaders for candid, peer‑to‑peer conversations. These sessions weren’t marketing briefings. They were grounded discussions about what teams are facing right now: tighter regulation, rising security pressure, shifting cloud strategies, and the practical realities of automation and AI.
