I want to have an AWS region where everything breaks with high frequency. EC2 networks dropping packets, EBS volumes hanging and failing, entire AZs dropping offline, etc. If it breaks 0.001% of the time in us-east-1, I want it to break 1% of the time in us-fail-1. #awswishlist
It& #39;s one thing to design code to handle failures; it& #39;s quite another to *test* that it responds correctly. I would happily pay a 1000% premium on the usage if I could run my tests to a phenomenally flaky AWS region.
It looks like I& #39;m not the only person who wants an AWS region which breaks all the time for testing purposes.
Now for the harder question, what should it be called?
