I want to have an AWS region where everything breaks with high frequency. EC2 networks dropping packets, EBS volumes hanging and failing, entire AZs dropping offline, etc. If it breaks 0.001% of the time in us-east-1, I want it to break 1% of the time in us-fail-1. #awswishlist
It's one thing to design code to handle failures; it's quite another to *test* that it responds correctly. I would happily pay a 1000% premium on the usage if I could run my tests to a phenomenally flaky AWS region.
It looks like I'm not the only person who wants an AWS region which breaks all the time for testing purposes.

Now for the harder question, what should it be called?
