Throughput in Performance testing: A Comprehensive Guide

Measuring throughput and latency is a critical step in load testing software to ensure application performance and stability. In this article, we’ll discuss essential considerations before beginning performance testing and provide a detailed, step-by-step guide on leveraging production traffic replication in Kubernetes. This approach helps you accurately determine your software’s maximum throughput during performance testing.

APIs and Finance: How Banks Use APIs

Application programming interfaces (APIs) do a lot of behind-the-scenes work that you might never notice. When you look at the weather forecast on your smartphone, you get updated info because of an API. You rely on APIs when you sign into your email account, get driving directions, and book airplane tickets.

Replay Production Traffic to Mock local development environments

Building and debugging Kubernetes microservices can be tough, especially when you don't have realistic data or environments. See how Speedscale can quickly mock DBs and APIs based on observed production behavior, so you can debug and develop features quickly. People familiar with GoReplay will notice a more modern and automated approach to turning user behavior into reproducible developer environments.

How to Load and Performance Test Kubernetes, what is Kubernetes and nuances of the platform

Check out Matt LeRay's talk on How to Test in Kubernetes at Star WEST 2024. Distributed architectures like Kubernetes present unique performance challenges. Autoscaling, Load Balancing and other mechanisms help with resiliency but can also serve to cover up fundamental problems. In this video, learn best practices and high level concepts around Kubernetes and achieving high throughput.

How to get started with a local kubernetes development environment

Mocks can be useful, but hard to build. You can use them as backends for development, or even tests (like load and performance testing). Speedscale takes the legwork out of building mocks, by modeling them after real observed traffic. This video covers a real-world example of how to use mocks to backend a JMeter load test.

The Five Pillars of Customer Identity and Access Management #WordsUnplugged

Customer Identity and Access Management (CIAM), a subgenre of IAM, enables organizations to scale and ensure secure, seamless digital experiences for their customers, while collecting and managing customer identity data purposefully. Powerful CIAM solutions provide a variety of key features including customer registration, social logins, account verification, self-service account management, consent and preference management, single sign-on (SSO), multi-factor authentication (MFA), and adaptive authentication as well as other nice-to-have features.
