Chaos Engineering can help you improve your incident response workflows. Don’t wait until an event happens to flex your response muscles, create real-world scenarios with Gremlin and practice your response with PagerDuty.

Microservices and DevOps allow for rapid innovation and continuous improvement. However, these new approaches exponentially increase the complexity of systems. This means critical applications are failing today, causing financial loss, customer dissatisfaction, and employee burnout. As traditional quality assurance struggles to keep up with this complexity, innovative organizations have embraced controlled Chaos Engineering to proactively test for failure. With Gremlin and PagerDuty, you can safely run and automate real-world failure scenarios to build confidence that complex distributed systems will deliver an uninterrupted customer experience.
