This video was recorded at Code Mesh LDN 18 http://bit.ly/2P7SPII Get involved in Code Sync's next conference http://bit.ly/2Mcm4aS --- APPLYING PRINCIPLES OF CHAOS ENGINEERING TO SERVERLESS by Yan Cui THIS TALK IN THREE WORDS: Serverless Chaos Architecture TALK LEVEL: Intermediate ABSTRACT Chaos engineering is a discipline that focuses on improving system resilience through experiments that expose the inherent chaos and failure modes in our system, in a controlled fashion, before these failure modes manifest themselves like a wild fire in production and impact our users. Netflix is undoubtedly the leader in this field, but much of the publicised tools and articles focus on killing EC2 instances, and the efforts in the serverless community has been largely limited to moving those tools into cloud-hosted functions. But how can we apply the same principles of chaos to a serverless architecture? Can we adapt existing practices to expose the inherent chaos in these systems? What are the limitations and new challenges that we need to consider? Join us in this talk as Yan Cui shares his thought experiments, and actual experiments, in his pursuit to understand how we can apply the principles of chaos to a serverless architecture. A word of warning though, you’re guaranteed to walk away with more questions than answers!

He has been an architect and lead developer with a variety of industries ranging from investment banks, e-commerce, sports streaming to mobile gaming. In the last 2 years he has worked extensively with AWS Lambda in production, and he has been very active in sharing his experiences and the lessons he has learnt. Some of his work has even made their way into the Serverless Well-Architected whitepaper published by AWS. He is a regular speaker at user groups and conferences internationally, and he is also the author of Production-Ready Serverless and a co-author of F# Deep Dives. In his spare time he keeps an active blog at theburningmonk.com where he shares his thoughts on topics such as AWS, serverless, functional programming and chaos engineering.
