The Concepts section contains Definitions, Design principles, Terminology and Working technical theory. This section will not have the actual usage instructions or guides those will be made available in the User Guides section.

Chaos Infrastructure

Chaos infrastructure is a service that runs in your target environment and aids Litmus control plane in accessing and injecting chaos.

ChaosHub

ChaosHub allows you to orchestrate chaos experiments from the Public ChaosHub or an alternate source for the Faults.

Chaos Experiment

Chaos Experiment is a set of different operations coupled together to achieve desired chaos impact on a Kubernetes Cluster.

Probes

Probes are pluggable checks that can be defined within the ChaosEngine for any Chaos Fault.

User Management

Role Privileges of different users in the ChaosCenter.

Projects

Project management system which can be used for working on chaos experiment with multiple different projects across different chaos infrastructures.

Teaming

Teaming feature to facilitate collaboration between users using project level role access.

GitOps

GitOps feature in Litmus enables you to configure a single source of truth for your chaos experiments and faults.

Authentication in ChaosCenter

Authentication in ChaosCenter supports both local and OAuth-based authentication through the Authentication Server and Dex OIDC Server, offering enhanced flexibility and secure access management.

Visualize chaos experiment

ChaosCenter enables users to visualize the execution of chaos experiments in real-time, displaying key details like step statuses, logs, and results. This visualization helps in analyzing the impact and resiliency of the experiment, with graphs showing the experiment’s progress and individual node information.
