Ron Franklin
Principal Consultant
Genilogix, LLC
Synopsis: Developing a performance test infrastructure to support large scale testing of an application requires attention to the various elements which make up a network. Each element has an effect on the resulting network. Attention is focused on the resulting design so the performance test network does not get in the way of the actual test.
Using a case-study approach, one such network will be reviewed with emphasis from initial performance test requirements through deployment of the test network.
