I want to have an AWS region where everything breaks with high frequency
For those saying "Chaos Engineering", first off, the poster is well aware of Chaos Engineering.  He's an AWS Hero and the founder of Tarsnap.<p>Secondly, this would help make CE better.  I actually asked Amazon for an API to do this ten years ago when I was working on Chaos Monkey.<p>I asked for an API to do a hard power off of an instance.  To this day, you can only do a graceful power off.  I want to know what happens when the instance just goes away.<p>I also asked for an API to slow down networking, set a random packet drop rate, EBS failures, etc.  All of these things can be simulated with software, but it's still not exactly the same as when it happens outside the OS.<p>Basically I want an API where I can torture an EC2 instance to see what happens to it, for science!
