Chaos Engineering in Coventry

Deliberately introducing failure into Coventry organisations' systems to find out how they respond — which is only worth doing once the ordinary failures are survivable. Breaking things in a system with no tracing and untested recovery does not produce learning; it produces an outage with a paper trail explaining that you caused it.

Why this comes up

The problem

An experiment took down a dependency in production and nobody could tell which services were affected.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Readiness checked first — observability, alerting and a recovery path that has been used
  • Each experiment framed as a hypothesis about what should happen
  • Blast radius limited deliberately, starting in non-production and expanding slowly
  • An abort condition defined before starting, and the means to stop quickly
  • Findings turned into changes, since an experiment producing no fix has taught nothing
  • Game days run with the on-call team, because response is what is being tested

Working in Coventry

West Midlands

Coventry's automotive and mobility research base means a lot of local firms sit in complex supply chains, where the useful software is usually the piece that connects systems nobody planned to connect.

Supply chain integration dominates — connecting order, quality and delivery data between manufacturers and the tiers above and below them.

Chaos Engineering in Coventry — common questions

When is an organisation ready for this?
When it can already see what is happening and recover from something ordinary. If a database failover has never been tested and tracing does not exist, the useful work is establishing those — chaos experiments on that foundation reveal only that things break, which was not in doubt.
Why frame experiments as hypotheses?
Because that is what makes them experiments rather than incidents. Stating that the system should continue serving requests when one instance is lost gives a result to compare against — and if the prediction was wrong, you have learned something specific rather than caused a problem.
Should this be run in production?
Eventually, and not first. Non-production reveals the obvious failures cheaply, and moving to production with a small blast radius during a quiet period is how mature teams find the things staging environments cannot show — but that is a later step, not an entry point.
What are game days for?
Testing the humans. Much of what fails during an incident is the response — an out-of-date runbook, an alert nobody owns, an escalation path that leads to somebody on leave — and a scheduled exercise with the on-call team surfaces those without anything actually being at stake.
Do you work with businesses across West Midlands?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout West Midlands, including Coventry and the surrounding West Midlands area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Coventry businesses do you usually work with?
Supply chain integration dominates — connecting order, quality and delivery data between manufacturers and the tiers above and below them. Beyond that we work across Automotive, Advanced Manufacturing, Higher Education, Logistics and Gaming.
Do you cover the areas around Coventry?
Yes — we work throughout West Midlands, including Birmingham, Leicester, Northampton, Wolverhampton. Coventry is an urban area of roughly 370,000+, and we take on work across the wider West Midlands region rather than the city boundary alone.
