What if you could automate reliability + chaos engineering? (Sponsor)

Chaos engineering tells you something broke. But figuring out what broke and how to fix it? That's where teams start scratching their heads (and spending thankless hours digging through telemetry).

Gremlin's new Reliability Intelligence gives every team a built-in reliability expert, delivering faster insights and smarter fixes with every test. 

So now you can: 

  • Connect your LLM through the Gremlin MCP server to query reliability data
  • Apply 10+ years of chaos engineering expertise from Netflix and Amazon pioneers
  • Auto-analyze experiments and get clear remediation steps

Join Gremlin for a webinar to learn more about Reliability Intelligence and the MCP server
