Introducing Distributed Load Testing v1.1

Posted on: Oct 6, 2020

Distributed Load Testing on AWS helps you easily simulate thousands of users connecting to your application so that you can better understand your application performance under load. The solution launches and configures containers on AWS Fargate to generate a specified number of transactions per second without having to provision servers. 

This update adds support for JMeter test scripts. JMeter is a popular open source application for testing functional behavior and performance, and this update allows customers to use JMeter scripts to test the robustness of their applications. This update also introduces AWS Step Functions to reduce solution complexity.

Additional AWS Solutions Implementations offerings are available on the AWS Solutions page, where customers can browse common questions by category to find answers in the form of succinct Solution Briefs or comprehensive Solution Implementations, which are AWS-vetted, automated, turnkey reference implementations that address specific business needs.
