As customers commit to a DevOps mindset and embrace a nearly continuous integration/continuous delivery model to implement change with a higher velocity, assessing every change impact on an application resilience is key. This blog shows an architecture pattern for automating resiliency assessments as part of your CI/CD pipeline. Automatically running a resiliency assessment within CI/CD pipelines, development teams can fail fast and understand quickly if a change negatively impacts an applications resilience. The pipeline can stop the deployment into further environments, such as QA/UAT and Production, until the resilience issues have been improved. AWS Resilience Hub is a managed service that gives you a central place to define, validate and track the resiliency of your AWS applications. It is integrated with AWS Fault Injection Simulator (FIS), a chaos engineering service, to provide fault-injection simulations of real-world failures. Using AWS Resilience Hub, you can assess your applications to uncover potential resilience enhancements. This will allow you to validate your applications recovery time (RTO), recovery point (RPO) objectives and optimize business continuity while reducing recovery costs. Resilience Hub also provides APIs for you to integrate its assessment and testing into your CI/CD pipelines for ongoing resilience validation. AWS CodePipeline is a fully managed continuous delivery service for fast and reliable application and infrastructure updates. You can use AWS CodePipeline to model and automate your software release processes. This enables you to increase the speed and quality of your software updates by running all new changes through a consistent set of quality checks... View the full article
