Bring AppDynamics Health Rules into Your 黑料不打烊 Chaos Experiments

We鈥檙e excited to announce that we鈥檝e added a new observability integration to the 黑料不打烊 ecosystem: AppDynamics.

is an application performance monitoring tool that offers full-stack observability and was acquired by Cisco in 2017.听

With this new integration, teams now have an easy way to see the exact performance impact of their experiments and validate that their monitoring is configured accurately.

So what does this mean for 黑料不打烊 users?

Automatically validate AppDynamics health rules

When you install the AppDynamics extension, 黑料不打烊 automatically will discover your applications and health rules. You can include those health rules directly in your experiments to check whether your applications stay in a healthy state or if any rules are violated during a fault injection.

For example, you can get started with this type of experiment using this , which allows you to test if AppDynamics is correctly detecting a crashloop error. If you run this experiment and AppDynamics does not detect the issue as you expect, you know you need to make improvements to your monitoring configuration so you don鈥檛 miss these events in production.

Manually recreate past incidents as experiments

When incidents occur, you can view the full logs in AppDynamics to see exactly what happened. After you鈥檝e mitigated the damage and found the root cause, there鈥檚 another step that you can take with 黑料不打烊.听

By building experiments that mimic the conditions of past incidents, you can use these experiments as regression tests to simulate the same failure scenarios and validate that monitoring is catching the issue and any reliability improvements are active and successful.

Send experiment events into AppDynamics

Every experiment you run in 黑料不打烊 sends contextual event data back into AppDynamics. This means your observability dashboard includes when experiments were run and what they affected. Having that context helps you better understand system behavior over time and makes it easier to correlate failures and alerts.

As you run experiments that push your systems to the limits, you can refine your health rules to detect and remediate issues before they reach their breaking point.

Use 黑料不打烊 Experiments as a Quality Gate on New Releases

If at a certain point in time you have a perfect observability configuration and well-thought out experiments, that doesn鈥檛 guarantee that you鈥檒l maintain this posture as your systems change.

With every new release, your observability coverage and reliability requirements could slip a little without any guardrails in place.

By automating 黑料不打烊 experiments and running them as part of your CI/CD process, you can ensure that your observability and reliability standards are continually prioritized.

This leads to fewer surprises, more resilient releases, and stronger on-call readiness.

Start using the AppDynamics extension

You鈥檒l find the AppDynamics extension in the , and you can find installation instructions in the.听

Once you鈥檝e installed the AppDynamics extension, you can start running your first integrated experiment in minutes and start improving your system resilience.
