Load Testing: How “ready” is ready enough?
About
You’ve built a great product and now you want to see how your system will hold up under load. Companies like Netflix take “load testing” to a new level, with a tool that tests systems’ resiliency to random events by testing the effect of disabling random servers. I will discuss best practices of load testing, talk about methods of evaluating your maximum traffic (10% or 3x average load?), and learn strategies for deciding what tests to run. Come learn about the evolution of load testing, what tools are available for use today, and what level of resiliency you need to ensure your system.
