1) Traditional load testing is limited in its ability to accurately measure end-user experience and identify issues with third-party components. 2) Load testing 2.0 uses real user testing from geographically distributed locations to better understand regional response times and external factors that impact performance. 3) A case study showed that load testing 2.0 uncovered poor response times for key revenue regions that traditional load testing failed to detect.

- In the past, fewer machines served up the same information on one network that now is distributed The applications have gotten more complex and they’re very distributed The average web application now includes SIX separate web applications and they can have an impact on your brand. Third parties can be ads or videos, marketing tracking of visitors. Most of these applications can perform very differently under load., Sometimes the only place that all of these third parties come together is in a browser on the end user’s machine. CDNs can have wildly different performance in different geographies. The effectiveness of your CDN has a huge impact on your user experience and how your customers view the performance of your application.

Unfortunately, there are a long list of possible issues. This slide shows examples of the various issues that can occur at any point along the chain. It’s pretty ugly, because there’s a lot that can go wrong. Some of these can occur inside your firewall, but they won’t show up on system monitoring tools. Have you ever heard of or experienced any of these problems? Are you using any third party or cloud services? Are you using a CDN? Do you know if your application runs on every browser and O/S and mobile device? They happen every day. And the harsh reality is: they change everyday, too. You can get them right one day and something goes wrong the next. Your users expect you to control these issues. If they try to visit your site or run your Web application and it doesn’t work, they hold you responsible. The good news is that all of these issues can be controlled – but first you need to be aware of them. That’s the first step to fixing them and ensuring your user has a positive experience.
- Last updated or created: Nov ‘09 Moved firewall to the right; more detail in data center Key themes: Delivering Web/mobile apps is complicated and involves many services. Talk track Why is it your data center monitoring tools can be reporting “green” but your users are unhappy? It’s because of something called “the Web applications delivery chain.” To deliver a Web or mobile application in today’s Internet, you must use a complex set of services and layers that are called the “ Web application delivery chain .” These services must all work together to deliver the application to the user. If any one of them has an issue, your user will have a bad experience. First, your application must go through your major corporate ISP. Then, it travels thru the Internet. Increasingly, Web applications today are using third party or cloud services (we’ve seen companies where their home page has over 20 third party providers or services). It’s also very common to use a Content Delivery Network to accelerate the delivery of the Web application. Eventually, your Web or mobile application goes thru a local ISP or a mobile carrier. Ultimately it reaches your end user or customer, where it has to run on their local device – a computer or smart phone – and in their browser. A few years ago it seemed that only Internet Explorer mattered, but now there are a myriad of browsers on the market and, unfortunately for companies delivering Web applications, they all work a differently.
