It was called Jellly at the time (mid 2015) but it was an early build of what OctoPerf would become. And when we started in 2015, JMeter was undoubtedly the best tool around.

As early as 2015, the Canadian Broadcasting corporation used Azure App Services, the managed platform for building web apps, to scale its real-time election-night website to handle requests from millions of users. The platform reserves a base number of virtual machines and automatically adds instances as needed during periods of heavy use.

We needed to go beyond APM.
