The many disaster scenarios and outcomes allow chaos engineers to better model what happens to applications and microservices, which gives them increasing intelligence to share with developers to perfect software and cloud-native infrastructure. The history of chaos engineering. Netflix pioneered chaos engineering out of necessity.

It simplifies infrastructure management and is the driving force behind many cloud-native applications and services. Kubernetes manages and orchestrates these containers, handling tasks such as deployment, scaling, load balancing, and networking. Just consider the sheer number of people who stream Netflix every night!

The initial implementation was removed from Blink post-fork and re-implemented on new infrastructure several years later. Real-time network protocols for enabling videoconferencing, desktop sharing, and game streaming applications. Modern, asynchronous network APIs that dramatically improve performance in some situations.
