Flux-A New Approach to System Intuition

Target:

understand in real time what effect a variable is having on a subset of request traffic during a Chaos Experiment

We require a tool that can give us this holistic understanding of traffic as it flows through our complex, distributed system

requirements:

Realtime data
Data on the volume, latency, and health of requests
Insight into traffic at network edge
The ability to drill into IPC traffic
Dependency information about the microservices as requests travel through the system

Pain Suit: As a microservice experiences failure, the corresponding electrodes cause a painful sensation.

The inter-region traffic from victim to savior increases while the savior region scales up. At that point, we switch DNS to point to the savior region.
