Designing for Failure and Recovering from Failure – c110044gwpl
Course #: c110044gwpl
Duration: 0.8 Hours
The Designing for Failure and Recovering from Failure module covers how to use practices to design for failure. The module includes a closer look into three specific practices and then explores the concept of recovering from failure invocation.
Objectives
- Design and implement a circuit-breaker pattern for failure management
- Limit the effects of outages by using limited blast radius practices
- Improve application resiliency with chaos testing
- Learn software testing resiliency practices
- Learn when to Use Availability Zones versus Multi-zone Region failure domains on IBM Cloud
Audience
This course is intended for learners who are pursuing professional-level site reliability engineer certification on IBM Cloud.
