Explore chaos architecture principles and mindset in this 45-minute conference talk from GOTO Chicago 2018. Dive into cloud usage patterns, from faster data centers to complete data center replacement strategies. Learn how to handle failures, understand availability theater, and develop observability in cloud-native environments. Discover the importance of chaos engineering teams, tools, and security red teams in building resilient systems. Examine interconnected applications, operators, and users while considering safety margins and hypothesis testing. Gain insights from Adrian Cockcroft, Vice President of Cloud Architecture Strategy at Amazon Web Services, on developing a robust approach to system failures and creating more durable cloud-based workloads.
