Gremlin announces Services Discovery for tracking and improving the reliability of distributed services. Gremlin is the enterprise Chaos Engineering platform on a mission to help build a more reliable internet. Their solutions turn failure into resilience by offering engineers a fully hosted SaaS platform to safely experiment on complex systems, in order to identify weaknesses before they impact customers and cause revenue loss.

In this lightning talk, Liv Balderas (Customer Success Manager @ Gremlin) shares how to reduce MTTD by practicing Chaos Engineering.

Chaos Engineering in 60 seconds - Scheduled Shutdown Attack. This is commonly referred to as a Chaos Monkey style attack.

In this video, we will demonstrate how to use Gremlin and Jenkins to create an automated Chaos Gauntlet. This will be done using Jenkins Pipelines and Stages to inject a controlled amount of failure with the Gremlin API. We then add a final stage that allows you to optionally halt the attack from the pipeline, rather than having to wait for the full duration of the attack.
