Chaos monkey is a simulation, I believe.

  It's not a simulation, it's real-world production technology. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_details_of_Netflix https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_details_of_Netflix

    I think they meant that Netflix Chaos Monkey is a "simulation" of the real-deal, which is sending a shaved-ape into a physical server room and pulling out physical network cables. I didn't read it as derogatory.

      Oh perhaps they did mean shaved-ape simulator. I read none of it as derogatory, and hopefully my response didn't suggest otherwise.
