Why applying chaos engineering to data-intensive applications matters

Dynatrace

Such frameworks support software engineers in building highly scalable and efficient applications that process continuous data streams of massive volume. Failures can occur unpredictably across various levels, from physical infrastructure to software layers. This significantly increases event latency.

Building Netflix’s Distributed Tracing Infrastructure

The Netflix TechBlog

Now let’s look at how we designed the tracing infrastructure that powers Edgar. If we had an ID for each streaming session then distributed tracing could easily reconstruct session failure by providing service topology, retry and error tags, and latency measurements for all service calls.

Streaming SQL in Data Mesh

The Netflix TechBlog

On the Data Platform team, we build the infrastructure used across the company to process data at scale. This includes features such as autoscaling, the ability to manage pipelines declaratively via Infrastructure as Code, and a rich connector ecosystem. This makes the query service lightweight, scalable, and execution agnostic.

The Netflix Cosmos Platform

The Netflix TechBlog

It supports both high throughput services that consume hundreds of thousands of CPUs at a time, and latency-sensitive workloads where humans are waiting for the results of a computation. The third generation, called Reloaded , has been online for about seven years and has proven to be stable and massively scalable.
