My main use case for Gremlin Reliability Management Platform is the Chaos Engineering part for software. A quick specific example of how I've used Gremlin Reliability Management Platform for Chaos Engineering in my work is with a web service we have, where we need to know the reliability score of it. We conducted chaos experiments with it, including a network experiment, black hole, CPU, and memory experiments, that create chaos for the service, and then we receive a reliability score reflecting the service's reliability, especially in a production environment.
Gremlin Reliability Management Platform is amazing with the reliability score. There is a built-in Chaos Engineering experiment that can help you to provide this to your service. You run it on your service, and then you receive the reliability score from Gremlin Reliability Management Platform, along with insights on the issues and risks present in your service that you can examine and work on.
One of my best features of Gremlin Reliability Management Platform is the built-in chaos experiments, which gives you the reliability score of your service.
The built-in chaos experiments and reliability scoring have helped me in my day-to-day work by making it easier to run the experiments directly instead of doing them manually one by one. It allows running scenarios for my web service, for example, and in terms of CPU, it runs the container in terms of Kubernetes from 25% to 75% CPU utilization, giving me more insights about how reliable my system is, making my approach easier for Gremlin Reliability Management Platform and Chaos Engineering.
Game Days can help you take a day with your team to experiment with your services in a production or pre-production environment, allowing you to see how reliable your system is, which is a great feature for the team to deep dive into Chaos Engineering.
Gremlin Reliability Management Platform has positively impacted my organization because we had clients come to us to implement Gremlin Reliability Management Platform as a Chaos Engineering platform for their use cases, which has gained us a lot of potential client opportunities as a consulting company. The reliability scores have improved, as built-in experiments give you the reliability scores, along with insights on risks you have, how you can manage and improve them, which is very helpful. In terms of faster incident response, especially in Kubernetes, if you have one container, Gremlin Reliability Management Platform flags the need for an HPA that will increase your reliability score for the service.
Gremlin Reliability Management Platform can be improved by introducing open-source features. It currently has a paid version, but introducing open-source features could encourage more people to use and try it.
The user interface is great, the integration is smooth, and Gremlin Reliability Management Platform has a fantastic support team that helps us a lot in many cases.
I have been using Gremlin Reliability Management Platform for around two years, and I am certified in Gremlin Reliability Management Platform.
Gremlin Reliability Management Platform is stable with good availability and is very reliable.
Gremlin Reliability Management Platform scales smoothly for running more chaos experiments, adding more services, or supporting a larger team. It can easily scale up your experiments for many of your services, and it can provide other experiments for interconnected dependencies.
When I have questions or run into issues with Gremlin Reliability Management Platform, their support team is helpful and responsive. They resolve our problems quickly and provide assistance through Zoom meetings, which has been very effective in troubleshooting.
We did not use any other solutions; we only started with Gremlin Reliability Management Platform.
I can see a return on investment because we save a lot of time during our Chaos Engineering experiments. We do not need to look at all the day's metrics on Grafana dashboards; we run our chaos experiments in a production environment to see how reliable our product or service is.
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing depends on the company. My role does not incur costs for us since we have an NFR for Gremlin Reliability Management Platform that we can use in our case.
I did not evaluate other options before choosing Gremlin Reliability Management Platform; the company did that, so I do not have an answer for that.
