Designing for Failure: Chaos Engineering Principles in System Design

A practical guide to chaos engineering principles that transform fragile architectures into resilient, self-healing systems. Recently, I wrote an article titled “What if you are to build for one million daily active users?” . In that article, we explored a point where a monolithic system could no longer scale and began to break. We discussed scalability, availability, and observability, and why they become critical as systems grow. This article builds directly on that discussion. Here, the focus
