Abstract
Techniques are provided for chaos engineering in microservices using a service mesh. In an example, a plurality of microservices can operate together as part of a software as a service product. A graph of the service mesh of the plurality of microservices can be determined. From that graph, weight can be assigned to the respective nodes. Those weights can be used to determine a probability of where chaos is introduced in the corresponding microservice architecture as part of chaos testing.
