Boost your GitOps practices by integrating Chaos Engineering with Steadybit
Blog post from Steadybit
Integrating Chaos Engineering into GitOps practices using Steadybit can enhance infrastructure reliability and continuous verification, particularly when adding critical components. GitOps, which evolved with the rise of microservices and cloud computing, relies on Infrastructure as Code (IaC), Pull Requests (PRs), and Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) to automate infrastructure updates and maintain consistency. Chaos Engineering can be seamlessly integrated by intercepting infrastructure changes via PRs, allowing for automated testing of system resilience. The Steadybit CLI, combined with GitHub actions, facilitates this integration by enabling the execution of Chaos Engineering experiments within a CI/CD pipeline. This approach ensures that infrastructure changes are automatically verified for high availability, providing a practical method to boost GitOps practices.
