Abstract
A computer system is provided that includes a cloud platform that includes a plurality of nodes. Each node includes a processor configured to run virtual machines. The cloud platform includes a fault condition injection engine configured to generate fault conditions on selected nodes of the plurality of nodes. The computer system further includes a user interface system configured to receive user input of fault condition experimentation parameters from a user for a target virtual machine associated with the user. The cloud platform allocates a set of nodes of the plurality of nodes for a controlled sandbox environment configured to run the target virtual machine of the user. The fault condition injection engine generates fault conditions on the allocated set of nodes based on the fault condition experimentation parameters.
