Here's to a reliable holiday season and resilient new year!

The clock is ticking for financial institutions to align with the EU’s Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA). Need help? Learn how Gremlin can help you prepare for reliance regulations right here:  https://lnkd.in/gs73GRju 

Instead of waiting for January to tackle improvements, take advantage of end of year code freezes to set your team up for success in 2025. Here’s how: 1️⃣ Reflect on incident trends from 2024. What patterns stand out? 2️⃣ Review your system health. Run critical tests to catch hidden risks early. 3️⃣ Plan your 2025 reliability goals. Where can you move from reactive to proactive? Take it one step further by starting a regular reliability management cadence. Small actions now mean fewer surprises and smoother scaling tomorrow. Ready to make the most of your downtime?

📈 72% of organizations were using AI at the start of 2024, and that number is likely to keep growing throughout 2025. With expectations around AI reaching historic highs, the reliability of these systems is more important than ever. Enter, Gremlin GPU- the easiest way to build more resilient machine learning and AI models, and test and validate the scalability of your systems. Learn more at the link in the comments.

2025 is fast approaching, which means it’s the perfect time to look at how you can build a culture of reliability within your organization. Urgent troubleshooting burns out teams and creates a reactive environment.  Introduce proactive reliability efforts and you start to build a calm, collaborative culture. So where do you start?

2025 is just a few weeks away–how are you going to change your reliability efforts going into the new year? 🚀 Where to start: run reliability tests to test for cracks in your system. And while you’re at it, make regular reliability management part of your team’s workflow (we recommend a weekly cadence). Get ahead of potential issues and scale effectively with Gremlin’s Reliability Management Quick Start Guide- link in the comments. ⬇️ 🚀 Bonus: Once you’ve run the essential tests, put those insights to work. Make a plan for addressing any uncovered risks, and create reports for stakeholders in your organization. A more reliable 2025 starts today. 

No matter what type of  AI model you use, they all have one thing in common: they need to crunch a lot of data, and GPUs are the most effective tool. 💡 But what happens when those GPUs are busy? Can your infrastructure scale to meet changing demand? ➡️ Enter, Gremlin GPU experiments, the best way to test and validate the scalability of your systems. If you have an LLM deployed, run a GPU experiment alongside it to simulate heavy loads or additional workloads. While the experiment is running, monitor the performance, throughput, and availability of your LLM to determine what (if any) impact there is. It’s easy to get started- find it in the Gremlin web app, or learn more (and get started with your free trial) at the link in the comments. 

Even the most robust systems can experience downtime. This year’s CrowdStrike outage—and smaller outages across the industry—served as a warning: no system is immune. So, how do you prepare for the unpredictable? 1️⃣ Run reliability tests regularly. Identify weak spots before they become critical failures. 2️⃣ Simulate outages. Test your disaster recovery plan with realistic simulations.  3️⃣ Automate where possible. Reduce human error and recover faster. These outages aren’t just wake-up calls—they’re opportunities. The companies that proactively invest in reliability today will minimize customer impact and protect their reputations tomorrow. 💡 See how the team at Ritchie Bros. uses Chaos Engineering to prepare for the unexpected and ensure resilience: https://lnkd.in/gmcj26jH

The end of the year is the perfect time to implement proactive reliability measures that will pay dividends in 2025. Why? 🔹 Teams are less overwhelmed by day-to-day incidents. 🔹 It’s the ideal moment to reflect, plan, and prepare. 🔹 Setting up proactive measures now creates breathing room for innovation later. Start here: ✔️ Set up a regular cadence for reliability testing in 2025. ✔️ Automate the low-hanging fruit to avoid unnecessary toil. ✔️ Build a roadmap for handling risks uncovered during testing.
