Combine load testing and observability with Speedscale and New Relic One
Blog post from New Relic
Traditional load testing is often complex and outdated, prompting the need for innovative solutions like Speedscale, which leverages traffic replay to test cloud-native applications effectively. Founded by Ken Ahrens and his co-founders, Speedscale simplifies the testing process by using real traffic data to create automated test environments, allowing for efficient application performance evaluation without extensive manual setup. By integrating with New Relic One, Speedscale enhances observability, providing detailed insights into application performance through dashboards that combine traffic replay results with telemetry data. This approach supports continuous integration workflows and offers significant scalability, ensuring applications perform reliably under real-world conditions. Speedscale's quickstart feature facilitates easy integration and visualization of test data, enabling development teams to address performance issues proactively.
