# Scenario: Incident Simulation

## Description

Generate a controlled application and infrastructure incident so the logging pipeline, alert rules, and dashboards can be reviewed with realistic event timing.

## Commands

```bash
cd observability-stack
docker compose config
./scenarios/incident_simulation.sh comprehensive
tail -n 40 logs/incident_simulation.log
```

## Expected Result

- The compose file validates successfully.
- The simulation writes a sequence of CPU, memory, service, database, and application error events.
- Alert examples indicate firing and resolved states.
- Operators can trace incident progression through logs and dashboard queries.
