Infrastructure Monitoring
We're proud to introduce brand new analysis metrics. Load generators monitoring has been asked frequently and we felt like it was something crucial missing in load testing reports. By providing monitoring metrics for every load generator during the load test, you can quickly get an overview of all load generators health.
Although we take care of the infrastructure, these information are important to the performance tester: he can quickly pinpoint if a slow down is due to its infrastructure or due to a load generator being overhelmed. These metrics are crucial for us to further tune the capacity of the machines being launched.
The following hardware usage metrics are available.
- CPU Usage (%): cpu usage per machine in percent,
- Memory Usage (%): RAM usage per machine in percent.
The following network metrics are available:
- Network received (Bytes): incoming network traffic,
- Network sent (Bytes): outgoing network traffic,
- TCP Connections Established: number of active TCP connections, typically grows with number of active users,
- TCP Segment Retransmits: TCP segments being retransmitted due to network issues.
Those metrics will greatly help to understand if load generators or the tested infrastructure have reached a bottleneck.
