gixerlab-chaosEngineering

Chaos Engineering

Even when you think you have considered every eventuality, unknown-unknowns may still rear their ugly heads to wreak havoc. This Gixer Lab explored potential use cases for applying Chaos Engineering to build confidence in different systems’ capabilities to withstand turbulent conditions in production. From testing for sudden traffic spikes to causing host failures, detecting system bottlenecks to simulating an application crash… we aim to intentionally try to break our systems under certain stresses to determine potential outages, locate weaknesses, and improve resiliency.

AzureSecurityAuditandCostAnalysis

Azure Security Audit and Cost Analysis

Despite proactive measures, there may be occasions when Azure security could become compromised or costs spiral out of control. This Gixer Lab created an out-of-the-box process and report that can be used across multiple clients to audit the security, access control, and cloud costs of the Azure cloud platform. This allows us to review, update and analyze the status of any Azure cloud platform that we/our clients manage.

ReusableDataPipelineFramework

Reusable Data Pipeline Framework

If you’ve ever built a data pipeline, you know that you may have to build a new data pipeline from scratch every time you add a new data source. In this Gixer Lab, we developed a reusable data pipeline framework that significantly reduces the time and effort it takes to ingest new data sources. Using a best-practices approach, this framework helps us both with our own internal projects as well as with client projects.
