As software performance degrades or fails, the chaos engineers’ findings enable developers to add resiliency into the code, so the application remains intact in an emergency. Chaos engineering matured at organizations such as Netflix, and gave rise to technologies such as Gremlin (2016) , becoming more targeted and knowledge-based.
