Simulation of chaos engineeringfor Internet-scale software with ns-3

Abstract: AbstractChaos engineering is the practice of volitionally fault injecting in to a built system with the main purpose of finding the eventual bugs existed in the system before the actual system error occurs. One of the pioneers in this practice is the Simian army, a part of Netflix, where they used random fault injection and linage driven fault injection in its own enormous system with the purposes of suggesting either a relevant approach to chaos engineering or to propose methods of how to uncover the hidden weaknesses. With this paper we seek to attain a simplified illustration about these submitted studies of chaos engineering applied on a simulated Netflix environment in ns-3 with the intention to provide some enlightenment for the principles of chaos engineering and in addition to this we will also at the end of this paper present a suggestion about how to infer an unknown system as a possible application, derived from the knowledges acquired from our chaos journey.
