Measuring the cost and tracking the effectiveness of a high-impact Chaos Engineering program
The practice of Chaos Engineering has established the importance of running resiliency experiments in cloud-native application ecosystems. As the field of Chaos/Resilience Engineering has matured and attained widespread adoption, a need has emerged for engineering organizations to quantify the costs of running such a program. Additionally, sustained investment in any long-running program will require metrics (KPIs) to show effectiveness to Executive Leadership.
In this talk, we will discuss the setup, running and maintenance stages of a high performing Chaos/Resilience engineering program irrespective of the size of the organization. We will analyze the key metrics that should be tracked along with the optimum cadence of chaos exercises. Also, with the rapid advancement of CI/CD tools and cloud deployment technologies, we look at enhancing the impact of chaos engineering by deep integration into the continuous deployment pipeline.
Learning Outcome
- How to measure the cost of a chaos engineering program?
- What metrics should be used for tracking the effectiveness?
- What milestones should be planned in any chaos engineering program?
- How do other companies view their resilience engineering organizations?

Advanced
We overload our terms a lot in this industry. "Coupling" is one such. That word covers situations ranging from essential to accidental to comical to cosmic. Coupling seems to be the root of all ills. It is the molasses that slows our every move. And yet, in the industry from which we borrowed the term, "coupling" was not a dirty word. It meant something ingenious. Let us contemplate coupling for a time and see what we can do about it.

keyboard_arrow_downVilas Veeraraghavan - Walmart's Continuous Deployment Journey using Concord - Delving into the successes, failures and learnings
45 Mins
Case Study
Intermediate
This talk will focus on Walmart’s home-grown open sourced solution for all workflow orchestration needs - "Concord". We will discuss the extremely rewarding continuous deployment journey that we undertook at Walmart that led us down the path of creating Concord. We will dissect some key successful case studies that Concord helped us solve at Walmart scale. In addition, we will talk about the various challenges we faced and continue to face during our journey and how the fast-changing industry landscape (with respect to continuous delivery of software) influences our growth inside Walmart.
You will be able to understand:
- How we deal with challenges at Walmart scale
- Why we chose to open source our solution
- How we enable a complete CD cycle using Concord
- How Concord empowers deployments in a hybrid cloud model
