- +Related to: distributed-systems, microservices
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Disaster Recovery Planning
Developers should learn and use Disaster Recovery Planning to protect applications and infrastructure from unexpected outages, which can lead to financial losses, reputational damage, and legal issues
Pros
- +It is crucial for roles in DevOps, cloud engineering, and system administration, especially when working with mission-critical systems in industries like finance, healthcare, or e-commerce
- +Related to: business-continuity, incident-response
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use Chaos Engineering if: You want it is used to validate system resilience, uncover hidden dependencies, and ensure fault tolerance before real incidents occur, reducing downtime and improving customer trust and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use Disaster Recovery Planning if: You prioritize it is crucial for roles in devops, cloud engineering, and system administration, especially when working with mission-critical systems in industries like finance, healthcare, or e-commerce over what Chaos Engineering offers.
