Embracing collaborative chaos - running chaos days on large platforms

Join us for an evening of productive chaos with Lyndsay Prewer, in conjunction with Equal Experts' Expert Talks.

Today’s systems are inherently complex, with some component parts often operating in or close to sub-optimal or failure modes. Left unchecked, as complexity increases, the compounding of failure modes will inevitably lead to catastrophic system failure. Chaos days help us address this risk by spending time deliberately inducing failures, then analysing the response. This session summarises our experience of running chaos days on a large scale platform. We’ll explore the what, why, how and when of running a chaos day.

Our speaker, Lyndsay Prewer is an agile delivery consultant at Equal Experts with over 20 years' experience of helping individuals, teams and organisations improve their software delivery. https://twitter.com/lyndsp
