Yes, Netflix seems to get it, and I think their Simian Army is a great Q&A tool. However, it is not a complete testing system, I have never seen them talk about testing non-software components, and I hope they do that as well. As we saw in the previous Amazon outage, part of the problem was a circuit breaker configuration. -- Leo Bicknell - bicknell@ufp.org - CCIE 3440 PGP keys at http://www.ufp.org/~bicknell/
