Performance engineering is an essential part of ensuring that applications are resilient, and customers are satisfied. Preventing performance outages and delivering a seamless user experience is a fundamental responsibility for every company. In the retail industry, quick loading times are essential for maximizing sales—especially on high traffic days like Black Friday or Cyber Monday. Is your site prepared to handle the surge in demand? In the financial sector, even minor performance hiccups can lead to serious consequences, including security concerns and loss of customer trust. Prioritizing performance is not just beneficial; it’s essential for maintaining a competitive edge and safeguarding your brand’s reputation.

Cloud performance testing is an effective solution for addressing these challenges. By leveraging cloud-based performance tools, businesses can simulate high traffic loads and test their applications under various conditions without the need for extensive infrastructure. This flexibility allows for rapid scaling, enabling companies to ensure their systems perform optimally during peak times.

This is where OpenText™ Core Performance Engineering (LoadRunner Cloud) stands out, offering extreme cloud scalability, worldwide coverage, and realistic network conditions to ensure optimal performance every time. These benefits are reflected in the experience of DATEV, one of Europe’s largest software and cloud services companies. Peer Witthöft, Test Engineer at DATEV eG, shares: “When we evaluated the options, we quickly understood that OpenText Core Performance Engineering is the best solution for us. The OpenText solution offers a comprehensive set of features out of the box, including monitoring and analytics. What’s more, it’s very easy to use.”
