Deploy Load Generators directly in your network
Private Locations give you the control to deploy load generators precisely where they’re needed within your infrastructure, ensuring seamless testing campaigns with optimal performance and security. By deploying the control plane locally, you gain full autonomy over your testing environment, integrating it directly into your network. Choose from flexible deployment options to match your setup:
- Virtual Machines: Effortlessly launch load generators on trusted cloud providers like AWS EC2, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform for scalable performance testing.
- Kubernetes Containers: Deploy load generators as Docker containers on any Kubernetes distribution, including EKS, AKS, GKE, and OpenShift for consistent and managed testing environments.
- Dedicated Machines: Utilize your pre-existing servers to run load generators on dedicated hardware, ensuring maximum resource control and compliance with internal data policies.
Minimize latency with In-Network testing
For performance-critical applications, every millisecond counts. Private Locations ensure your load is generated within the same network, eliminating latency caused by external internet traffic. By testing directly within your secure infrastructure, Private Locations provide precise and actionable insights for internal services.
- Test private applications and endpoints: Seamlessly load test applications that aren’t publicly accessible, maintaining the security and isolation of your internal environment.
- Focus on specific architecture components: Isolate and assess individual parts of your system, such as microservices, for targeted performance analysis.
- Achieve latency-free testing: Generate load within your network to eliminate external latency and obtain highly accurate results.
Combine Public and Private Locations to suit your needs
For varied test cases across public and private endpoints, combine self-managed and cloud-managed load generators to suit your specific needs.
- Private Locations: You handle the configuration and deployment of load generators within your secure network, with only one-way communication to the cloud, providing enhanced data protection.
- Public Locations: Load generator setup, configuration, and data management are handled in the cloud, utilizing 4-core AWS EC2 instances for convenience and simplicity in broader internet-based tests.
