Chaos Engineering – DB Connection Leak

All modern applications connect with storage, such as a database or cache. Database connection leak is commonly observed in modern applications, which can result in connection leaks that can lead to production outages. In our series of chaos engineering articles, we have been learning how to simulate various performance problems. In this post, let's discuss... Continue Reading →

Chaos Engineering – File Connection Leak

Many Java applications still use files for importing and exporting data. If the connections to these files are not properly managed, it can lead to a significant number of connections leaking, causing the application to slow down or even crash. In our series of chaos engineering articles, we have been learning how to simulate various... Continue Reading →
