MeshOps

MeshOps is an interactive SRE training simulator that teaches you how to diagnose and recover from failures across a realistic online checkout system.

Start with a quick, six-step “Explain Like I’m Five” tutorial or jump directly into the full operations console. Follow requests between services, inspect metrics and distributed traces, identify root causes, manage canary releases, test resilience controls, and contain zero-trust security incidents.

Features:

• Five-mission Incident Commander campaign
• Controlled latency, outage, brownout, and authentication failures
• Interactive Istio service topology and live operational metrics
• Progressive canary delivery with automated guardrails
• OpenTelemetry trace explorer and service waterfall
• Retry, timeout, circuit-breaker, and bulkhead experiments
• Zero-trust and bounded chaos scenarios
• Scoring, certification ranks, and exportable after-action reports
• Real Kubernetes, Istio, Prometheus, and OpenTelemetry lab files included

The browser version is a safe, deterministic simulation. It never connects to a cluster or injects a real failure without an explicit action in the separately included lab environment.
