Learning From Chaos: Architecting for Resilience
In this talk Russ Miles, CEO of ChaosIQ, will share how leading organisations are successfully adopting chaos engineering to encourage a mindset of "architecting for resilience". Through chaos engineering, architects are able to establish a true "learning system" where everyone is involved in exploring how their systems can improve through embracing failure.
Drawing from a collection of real-world examples and experience reports, Russ will show how you can set up your systems to learn from controlled failure and make resilience an important competitive edge for your organisation.
