Reliability Toolkit

The Reliability Toolkit, developed by Reliably, aims to assist organizations of all sizes in strengthening their resilience engineering capability. According to the vendor, this toolkit equips teams to effectively address incidents and cost overruns, build more reliable products, and foster confident and healthier teams. The toolkit offers a comprehensive set of tools and features to support the implementation of chaos engineering practices and enhance system reliability.

Key Features

Experiment Builder: The Experiment Builder simplifies the creation of chaos engineering experiments through a visual interface. According to the vendor, users can customize and modify experiment structures using over 300 actions and probes.

Reusable experiment templates: Users can import existing experiments and convert them into reusable templates, according to the vendor. These templates can be shared with other teams, promoting collaboration and accelerating the adoption of chaos engineering practices.

Flexible deployment options: The Reliability Toolkit offers flexible deployment options, allowing users to run experiments from their preferred environments. The vendor states that experiments can be executed from popular CI/CD providers like Jenkins, Travis, or CircleCI. Additionally, users can run experiments in the cloud using the Reliably Cloud platform or deploy on-premises within their existing infrastructure for enhanced data security.

Scheduled executions: Users have the ability to schedule chaos engineering experiments to run automatically at specified intervals, according to the vendor. This feature enables teams to regularly test system resilience without manual intervention and proactively identify potential issues.

Native integrations with observability and collaboration tools: The Reliability Toolkit provides native integrations with popular observability and collaboration tools, according to the vendor. Users can easily connect their experiments to platforms like Honeycomb and Grafana to gather insights and visualize experiment results. Integration with Slack allows teams to receive real-time notifications and collaborate on experiment findings.

Comprehensive experiment customization: Users can customize experiment parameters, such as duration, failure thresholds, and success criteria, to align chaos engineering experiments with specific use cases and organizational requirements, according to the vendor.

Real-time monitoring and observability: The Reliability Toolkit enables real-time monitoring of experiment progress, system behavior, and key metrics, according to the vendor. This feature allows teams to gain valuable insights and make data-driven decisions.

Detailed experiment reporting: Users can access comprehensive reports and analysis of experiment results, including metrics, logs, and visualizations, according to the vendor. This feature provides a deeper understanding of system behavior and identifies areas for improvement.

Collaborative incident management: The Reliability Toolkit facilitates incident response and resolution by providing a collaborative platform for teams to track, document, and communicate during incidents, according to the vendor. This ensures efficient incident management and knowledge sharing.
