WEBMETRICS EXPANDS MASSIVELY SCALABLE LOAD TESTING SERVICE
Rapid Execution Enables Companies to Test Prior to Holiday Deadlines
San Diego, CA - August 24, 2006 -
Webmetrics, a leading provider of web performance management
solutions, today announced the upgrade of their highly-scalable load testing service, SiteStress. The company recently executed its largest ever on-demand load test, set up to simulate 30,000 concurrent users. Over a 1 hour period, the same Webmetrics SiteStress service can simulate millions of transactions. Webmetrics’ Professional Services team performed the test within 3 weeks of receiving the request, an important note for retailers looking to run tests prior to Black Friday.
Executed as a completely outsourced professional services engagement, Webmetrics SiteStress service can perform massive load tests from 5 regional North American locations as well as 34 locations worldwide, utilizing the Webmetrics GlobalWatch network. Webmetrics SiteStress customers are provided with access to one dedicated engineer and bundled consulting hours to help pinpoint, diagnose and solve issues identified during the tests. These services are not only mission critical for retailers preparing for the holidays, but also for companies with sites that incorporate complex transactions and connections to third party business partners, such as SaaS (Software as a Service) providers.
“Customers keep returning to us to run massive load tests for them because it is cost prohibitive for them to do this level of testing themselves,” said Tim Drees, CEO of Webmetrics. “In addition, the insight we provide on the post-test analysis involves expertise one can only get from being load testing experts.”
With only 3 months left before Black Friday, customers planning big holiday promotions have a small window of opportunity to take advantage of Webmetrics SiteStress before it’s too late. To get started immediately, call 1-877-524-8299 x1.
