Creating Chaos

Overview

The Equal Experts Chaos Day Playbook is a distillation of our thinking on how best to run a Chaos Day. It draws from our experience of running many Chaos Days across a diverse set of clients, ranging from large public-sector departments to private-sector retail organisations.

For readers who are pressed for time and already familiar with basic chaos engineering concepts, you can jump to the 5-minute guide to running a Chaos Day, and the case study on condensing the entire process into a 2.5 hour mini chaos event.

For those that want more depth, read on.

Who’s this playbook for?

We’ve created this playbook to help teams and organisations design, plan, execute and review a Chaos Day. It’s not just for engineers; it is for everyone involved in delivering software. Product owners can learn more about the risks and impacts of failure, testers can learn how to explore edge cases and test for resilience and designers can benefit from a greater understanding of the user experience of failure and how to design interfaces that are adaptable. \

This playbook is for any organisation, regardless of their tech stack or maturity. You don’t have to use containers, Kubernetes, or be in AWS, GCP, Azure or any other cloud platform to gain the benefits of probing your system’s response to failure.

a day of chaos is for everyone
