Serverless applications are ideal for deploying scalable applications without having to manage infrastructure. However, this also makes them difficult to test their reliability. It’s easy to simulate a network outage or latency when you have direct access to the host that your software’s running on. What do you do when you only have control over the code?

Failure Flags is Gremlin’s answer to serverless reliability. In this Office Hours session, we’ll show you how to run Chaos Engineering experiments on AWS Lambda functions. You’ll see how you can safely inject faults directly into your applications, how to scope experiments from individual functions to entire availability zones, and even how to create your own custom faults.
