❓ Question

We know IMTD has offered to help us with load testing. We also know Azure has some built-in tools for load testing. What are the next steps?

🕵️ Details

How many simultaneous requests will our prod server be able to handle? (And how many should we expect per person, given all the requests for resource files and api calls per page.) Will our API queries slow to a crawl with many concurrent users?

:question: Spike Questions

Can we test on Dev or UAT and get results accurate for Prod?
Will blasting our Azure server with requests incur costs?
What are the next steps for load testing on Azure?
