Amazon Web Services (AWS) has recently fault injection simulator received, the customers of the Open Cloud will be able to use from 2021. The Fault Injection System generates severe faults at the request of the customer in the Cloud of the customer. This should make it easier for them to identify weaknesses in their own infrastructure so that they can develop appropriate countermeasures.
"This makes it easier for teams to identify application vulnerabilities at scale to improve performance, observability and resiliency."

Chaos engineering for major customers
In professional circles, this process is referred to as "chaos engineering". Large customers of cloud hosters who administer their systems themselves, including Netflix, for example, have been using this approach for some time to improve their infrastructure. Amazon would like to use the approach of chaos engineering as a service to help smaller companies to be able to test the emergency case. For example, the tool can be used to take databases offline or create artificial load peaks.
"Chaos engineering is the process of stressing an application in test or production environments by creating disruptive events such as server failures or an API throttling, observing the system's response, and implementing improvements. Chaos engineering helps teams create the real-world conditions needed to uncover hidden problems, monitor blind spots and performance bottlenecks that are hard to find in distributed systems."

According to Amazon, the various chaos engineering as a service functions can be used in the EC2, EKS, ECS and RDS services.
