Overview

Gremlin is a leading reliability management platform that evolved from pioneered chaos engineering to a comprehensive suite for measuring and improving system resilience. By 2026, Gremlin has positioned itself as the 'Reliability-as-Code' standard, allowing organizations to automate the detection of systemic risks across multi-cloud and Kubernetes environments. The platform provides a unified Control Plane that orchestrates targeted fault injection—such as network latency, resource exhaustion, and state-change failures—to validate system health. Its 2026 architecture leverages AI-driven 'Reliability Scores' which map technical failure data directly to business KPIs. Gremlin allows SRE teams to run automated GameDays and integrate resilience testing directly into CI/CD pipelines, ensuring that every deployment is vetted for high availability. By integrating with major observability stacks like Datadog and New Relic, Gremlin creates a closed-loop system where failures are simulated, detected by monitors, and automatically mitigated before they impact end-users. This proactive approach transforms reliability from a reactive fire-fighting effort into a measurable, governed engineering discipline.
