100% agree. I'm actually surprised AWS hasn't built in a Chaos Monkey into their APIs/console so people can test their resiliency regularly if an AZ goes down.

edit: of course, AWS does have this: AWS Fault Injection Simulator

AWS Fault Injection Simulator does this.

Is that what they call us-east-1 nowadays?

us-east-1 has always been the canary region hasn't it?

TIL. Thank you!

Because then people would complain about AWS being less reliable than Azure / GCP.
