DiRT, Google's annual disaster recovery exercise revealed
http://j.mp/Qsuabv (ACM)
DiRT was developed to find vulnerabilities in critical systems and
business processes by intentionally causing failures in them, and to
fix them before such failures happen in an uncontrolled manner. DiRT
tests both Google's technical robustness, by breaking live systems,
and our operational resilience by explicitly preventing critical
personnel, area experts, and leaders from participating. Where we are
not resilient but should be, we try to fix it. (See the sidebar,
"Google DiRT: The view from someone being tested," by Tom Limoncelli.)
