Chaos Mesh® is a Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) hosted project. It is a cloud-native Chaos Engineering platform that orchestrates chaos on Kubernetes environments. At the current stage, it has the following components:

  • Chaos Operator: the core component for chaos orchestration. Fully open sourced.
  • Chaos Dashboard: a Web UI for managing, designing, monitoring Chaos Experiments; under development.

See the following demo video for a quick view of Chaos Mesh:

Chaos Operator

Chaos Operator injects chaos into the applications and Kubernetes infrastructure in a manageable way, which provides easy, custom definitions for chaos experiments and automatic orchestration. There are three components at play:

Controller-manager: used to schedule and manage the lifecycle of CRD objects

Chaos-daemon: runs as daemonset with privileged system permissions over network, Cgroup, etc. for a specific node

Chaos Operator

Chaos Operator uses Custom Resource Definition (CRD) to define chaos objects. The current implementation supports a few types of CRD objects for fault injection, namely DNSChaos, PodChaos, PodIoChaos, PodNetworkChaos, NetworkChaos, IoChaos, TimeChaos, StressChaos, and KernelChaos, which correspond to the following major actions (experiments):

  • pod-kill: The selected pod is killed (ReplicaSet or something similar may be needed to ensure the pod will be restarted).
  • pod-failure: The selected pod will be unavailable in a specified period of time.
  • container-kill: The selected container is killed in the selected pod.
  • netem chaos: Network chaos such as delay, duplication, etc.
  • network-partition: Simulate network partition.
  • IO chaos: Simulate file system faults such as I/O delay, read/write errors, etc.
  • time chaos: The selected pod will be injected with clock skew.
  • cpu-burn: Simulate the CPU of the selected pod stress.
  • memory-burn: Simulate the memory of the selected pod stress.
  • kernel chaos: The selected pod will be injected with (slab, bio, etc) errors.
  • dns chaos: The selected pod will be injected with dns errors, such as error, random.
