Get Started with Chaos Engineering

Welcome to Chaos Engineering! This section will help you get started with building resilient systems through controlled chaos experiments.

Overview

Chaos Engineering is the discipline of experimenting on a system to build confidence in the system's capability to withstand turbulent conditions in production.

Quick Start Steps

  1. Set up your environment - Configure your Harness account and connect your infrastructure
  2. Create your first experiment - Design and run a simple chaos experiment
  3. Analyze results - Review experiment outcomes and system behavior
  4. Scale your practice - Expand chaos engineering across your organization

  • Core chaos engineering principles
  • How to design effective experiments
  • Best practices for safe chaos testing
  • Integration with your existing workflows

Prerequisites

  • Active Harness account
  • Basic understanding of your system architecture
  • Access to target infrastructure
