Overview

This lesson defines the goal of this chapter which is to transfer the execution of our chaos experiments from our laptops into a Kubernetes cluster.

We saw that we could run experiments targeting applications running in Kubernetes. We messed with networking, and we saw how to shut down and manipulate nodes of a cluster. However, we were doing all that by running experiments locally. Our experiments were targeting a remote Kubernetes cluster.

What we have done so far was useful as a way to figure out how chaos experiments work. Now is the time to move the execution of those experiments away from our laptop and into a Kubernetes cluster. In addition to targeting a Kubernetes cluster, we want to run the experiments inside it and target the components inside the same cluster where chaos experiments are running.

In this section, we are going to explore how to transfer the execution of our chaos experiments from our laptops into a Kubernetes cluster.


In the next lesson, we will be provided with a gist that contains all the commands for this chapter.
