A Look Behind the Curtains of Silicon Valley Tech | In Deep with Angie Coiro
Show #134 | July 16, 2016 | Technology veteran and now author, Antonio García Martínez, discusses his new book, Chaos Monkeys. Imagine a chimpanzee rampaging through a datacenter powering everything from Google to Facebook. Infrastructure engineers use a software version of this “chaos monkey” to test online services’ robustness—their ability to survive random failure and correct mistakes before they actually occur. Tech entrepreneurs are society’s chaos monkeys, disruptors testing and transforming every aspect of our lives, from transportation (Uber) and lodging (AirBnB) to television (Netflix) and dating (Tinder).
Guests:
Author Antonio Garcia Martínez is a former Facebook executive, and also previously CEO of Adgrok, which he sold to Twitter, and a former strategist at Goldman Sachs. Chaos Monkeys: Obscene Fortune and Random Failure in Silicon Valley is his first book.
