QA Test Scale Dilemma, Social IT and the Big Shared Cloud

Will your application behave as expected even when it is

introduced with huge amount of activity?

Main App Stress Factors

• Transactions Performance– How many Per (minute, hour, day,

etc.)– How efficient are you at•Multithreading• Scaling•Memory cleanup


• Maintenance of all that Data– Max manageable items (products,

customers, etc.)– Architecture resilience while handling• Lots of writes and reads• Lifetime cycle maintenance

operations


Variety of data inputs may trigger situations your application was not set to

handle


• Network and Systems Load and timeouts– From the customer’s remote device– Through the WAN– Into your LAN– Relevant servers and storage systems


How does the 3rd party tools your application uses, perform under the load?

The QA Dilemma

• Few customers – Full Scale testing OK• Many Big Customers– Nice Income – Can’t match their size while testing– Must go for Simulation…??

The QA Dilemma

• Full Scale testing via Cloud Computing?–“Loan" resources– Amazon (EC2)– Lower price such as 1And1– Still costly over time

New Approach: Big Shared Cloud

• So, are we destined to revert to simulation only?

It is all about sharing. You give and then you receive so much more


Everyone builds Hybrid Clouds anyway, but they use it for themselves.


We use the same technology and solutions that comprise the Hybrid Cloud to setup a

Big Shared Cloud


CA Technologies for example sets their own testing cloud, Oracle does the same

and so do other companies


What happens if all those separate Hybrid Clouds are made available to all the

participant companies?


Every company spends what it can, but gets access to so much more


The test environment has a much wider variety as every company pre-loads its own

software.


The Big Shared Cloud can be turned into a great marketing tool showing off

company's products in a helpful way.


Time sharing of the resources and security management will require special attention


But hey, you need to invest into stuff that matters!
