Bootstrap your chaos engineering journey with AWS Fault Injection Service Scenarios Library
AWS Cloud Operations Blog
This post discusses how to use the AWS Fault Injection Service (FIS) Scenarios Library to simplify chaos engineering and test the resilience of AWS applications. It focuses on the "AZ Availability: Power Interruption" scenario from the library.
Specifically, the article covers:
- Overview of the "AZ Availability: Power Interruption" scenario from the FIS Scenarios Library, which simulates a power interruption event in a specific Availability Zone (AZ)
- Walkthrough of creating and running the experiment using the scenario, including setting shared parameters, targeting tags, and impact durations
- Benefits of using the FIS Scenarios Library, such as pre-built experiments, shared parameters, and targeting tags to streamline chaos engineering efforts
- Observing the impact of the experiment on a sample application and validating the hypothesis using tools like AWS CloudWatch RUM
- Conclusion emphasizing the value of the FIS Scenarios Library for building reliable, fault-tolerant systems on AWS
