Stress Tests with Azure Load Test vs AEM as a cloud

[mirkomanga]

Hi everyone,

Is it possible to perform stress performance tests (soak/endurance, peak, ...) of a site hosted on AEM as a cloud service with the Azure Load Testing tool (Based on Jmeter script)? Anyone have experiences with this?
Thank in advance, regards

Hi @mirkomanga 

I haven't had a chance to work on the stress test myself, but the best practices are listed here:

Hope this helps!

Thanks,

Hi Kiran,

pretty sure, I read both links (and a lot of others...); I understood that's possible create a stress strategy with JMeter scripts. My question was in order to run a custom jmeter script with the SaaS JMeter engine offered by Azure; is it possible? what best practises are suggested?

Thanks and regards   

PS: you sent me the link in official docs for AEM 6.5 , do you have a link for AEM as a Cloud Service? My need is for the SaaS/PaaS release. Thanks in advance
