I am looking forward to share my thoughts on ‘Reinventing Performance Testing’ at the imPACt performance and capacity conference by CMG held on November 7-10, 2016 in La Jolla, CA. Quite often the whole area of load testing is reduced to pre-production testing using protocol-level recording/playback. – Cloud.

As organizations develop more applications and microservices, they are discovering they also need to run more performance tests in the same amount of time or less to meet service-level objectives (SLOs) that fulfill service-level agreements (SLAs). How can organizations address this process bottleneck and run more tests in less time?
