unnoticed until a problem occurs • Gap between the admin's perception and reality The scope of recovery or the extent of impact cannot be predicted ! Even though it was working in the development environment...! Unless mass access or high load failure does not occur, bottleneck cannot be discovered! Wasn't it supposed to be auto healing...! Systems evolve day by day changes Yahoo JAPAN’s systems • Increasing complexity ! • Cascading failure! • Unexpected behavior!
and minimize damage • Is redundancy still maintained even when components go down? • Can the operation flow work as intended? • An approach to prevent failure: CICD automation, observability, pair/mob pro • An approach to mitigate the impact of failures: MRMAZ, canary release Yahoo JAPAN's measures so far: Introducing chaos engineering

‘The steady state does not change even when an event occurs’ to create a hypothesis. Specific examples of hypotheses created: ***Component *** ***Component ***Component pod What happens to the system when it fails? Create a hypothesis that the steady state does not change even if an event occurs ***Component goes into high load state • Request acceptance is not processed, and it takes time to deploy the app • If it continues for a long time, the automatic recovery will not work. • No impact on apps that are already running All users There is no effect on running apps, but there is an impact on app operations such as creation and deletion. ***Component: cpu high load cpu high load cpu attack for 1 pod with the same running function Success rate for *** command (Life and death monitoring) Not redundant There is an active standby function, but it is unknown at this time whether it will be redundant by enabling it Monitoring and alerting completed 1min/5min/30min Measure every 1 minute and fire if metrics is NG for 5 minutes Steady-state metrics SLI/SLO
