[00:00] Introduction
[01:19] What do resilience and self-healing mean?
[02:07] How is resiliency different from fault-tolerance and self-healing?
[04:31] Is resiliency a binary state? What's a good analogy?
[06:59] What do we do from an architectural standpoint to properly handle a degraded state?
[08:42] As an example, how is Netflix managing issues such as degraded connectivity?
[11:50] This is a great conversation. Where do we go from here?
