Maybe you’ve heard of chaos engineering, and you’re curious about what it is. This episode will help you understand! Joining Scott for the Full Stack Journey is Cwen (Chengwen) Yin of Pingcap (@cwenyin on Twitter), who is a co-founder of the Chaos Mesh project (now part of CNCF, found on Twitter as @chaos_mesh). Cwen was/is also involved in the TiDB and TiKV projects. TiKV is a CNCF Graduated project. Scott and Cwen talk about a number of different aspects of chaos engineering: * What is chaos engineering, anyway? * What do organizations hope to accomplish with chaos engineering? * What kinds of things does chaos engineering help expose? Scott and Cwen also talked extensively about when it’s the right time to embrace chaos engineering. In summary: If you’re early on your Kubernetes journey, it’s not time yet! (Listen to the episode for all the details.) Cwen also covered the major components of Chaos Mesh, which include a component to help bring non-Kubernetes resources into chaos experiments as well.
