Failover Conf Q&A on Building Reliable Systems: People, Process, and Practice
One of the biggest engineering challenges associated with maintaining or increasing the reliability of a system is knowing where to invest time and energy. InfoQ recently sat down with several engineers and technical leaders who are involved with the upcoming Failover Conf virtual event, and asked their opinion on the best practices for building and running reliable systems.

The Fundamental Truth behind Successful Development Practices: Software is Synthetic
Software systems are creative compounds, emergent and generative; the product of complex interactions between people and technology. They are different from the orderly, analytic worlds that our school-age selves expect to find. Being so full of complexity and uncertainty, we use a different way to arrive at a solution.

How to Use Chaos Engineering to Break Things Productively
Chaos can be a preventative for calamity. It's predicated on the idea of failure as the rule rather than the exception, and it led to the development of the first dedicated chaos engineering tools. This article explores chaos engineering, and how to apply it.

An Engineer’s Guide to a Good Night’s Sleep
Increased microservices adoption, fueled by the move to the cloud where architectures and infrastructure can flex and be ephemeral, adds complexity every day to the systems we create and maintain. This takes place alongside operating models with autonomous and totally empowered teams, so each distributed system has its own tapestry of technical approaches, languages, and services.
