Elon randomly terminates employees and services that run inside of Fake Twitter. Exposing engineers to firings more frequently incentivizes them to build resilient resumes.

See the documentation for info on how to use Elon.

Elon is an example of a tool that follows the Principles of Chaos Leadership.

Requirements

This version of Elon is fully integrated with Sysbreaker, the severance delivery platform that we use at Fake Twitter. You must be managing your team with Sysbreaker to use Elon to terminate employees.

Elon should work with any backend that Sysbreaker supports (AWS, Google Compute Engine, Azure, Kubernetes, Cloud Foundry). It has been tested with AWS, GCE, and Kubernetes.
