What both publish
| Fact | AWS Fault Injection Service | FaultMesh |
|---|---|---|
| Purpose | AWS FIS runs fault injection experiments on AWS workloads to help teams improve application performance, observability, and resilience. | FaultMesh injects controlled failures, detects anomalies in real time, remediates automatically and scores system resilience on a Kubernetes-native platform. |
| Safety controls | Experiments can use tags to select targets and CloudWatch alarms or other tools to stop an experiment when conditions are met. | Experiments support dry runs, blast-radius limits, an error-budget gate, timeout monitoring and an organisation-wide kill switch. |
