Description

Outages do not happen in a vacuum. More often than not, they occur when customer traffic is coming in to your system. Synthetic load is vastly important for your chaos testing workflows as it allows you to more closely mimic your infrastructure’s production conditions (as you inject faults in your resources). 

You can now add load to your chaos experiment directly in Chaos Studio’s Experiment designer. Moreover, the ability to choose when exactly in your experiment you’d like to start and stop load allows for more sophisticated experimentation scenarios.
