Performace Testing Approach for Enterprise Application comprising Serverless Component

Abstract

Performance testing validates non-functional requirement covering load test, scalability test, stress test etc. Performance testing of an application, which is using micro service base architecture and deployed part of the functionalities on serverless computing, need to be validated at system level for specified business scenarios. Various performance testing strategies are being used to simulate and measure the performance for serverless computing architecture.Serverless computing is trending nowadays, where developer needs to focus on his code rather than worrying about server management. In serverless computing, Application is nothing but collection of one or more functions, written for specific business functionality, which triggers on an event. The developer just needs to upload the code for execution. The performance of the serverless computing may vary due to dynamic configuration of the solution, technologies and different technology used by the service provider. [1] This paper is based on performance testing experiment conducted of a real business application built on complex architecture containing serverless component. Various past and recent work was also reviewed for performance testing approach of serverless computing application. It demonstrates the performance testing and monitoring of serverless computing application.
