Nice! Looks like an easy way to test resiliency and recover time.

On a site note, the new version of Chaos Monkey is integrated with Spinnaker, which supports Kubernetes via clouddriver. Some cool ui in there for scheduling: http://techblog.netflix.com/2016/10/netflix-chaos-monkey-upg...

Thanks!

Yeah, Chaos Monkey 2.0 is what I based kube-monkey off of. However, from what I can tell (and I may be wrong), Chaos Monkey will only work if you're running Spinnaker on Kubernetes, right? It seems like it still takes actions on instances of ASG etc. kube-monkey is meant to do the same for those running just Kubernetes. It will look for Kubernetes pods and kill them.

It depends on how you have your spinnaker accounts setup. You can install spinnaker on aws and only configure an account to use a spinnaker cluster, or install spinnaker on a separate cluster
