Introduction Oracle Corporation creates and sells Oracle Database (OracleDB), an object-relational database management system. Given that it is a multi-model database, it can support both the object-oriented and the object-relational models of data. Many of the biggest companies in the world across numerous industries use OracleDB, the most well-liked enterprise database. The stability, scalability, …
Introduction DB2 is a widely recognized and used database software product developed by IBM. It is specifically designed to handle both relational and non-relational data, making it a versatile option for data management. DB2 has gained significant popularity as a relational database management system (RDBMS) primarily used in large-scale corporate data warehouses. Its robust …
What is a Load Test? A load test is a kind of non-functional test that evaluates how well a system or application performs when it is being used at its maximum capacity. This test confirms the software system’s resource utilization, stability, and dependability under heavy stress. What is Peak Load? Depending on the production …
Before we discuss the differences between agent-based and agentless monitoring tools, let’s first try to define an agent. What is an agent? A server’s performance must be tracked by its own software program called an agent. The agent, which resides on the server, collects statistics such as CPU and memory usage. Then it sends all …
Run the lscpu command on your Linux machine to see the difference between the physical and logical CPU (kernel). The output will look something like this: Figure 01: Output of the lscpu command The rest are not that important in regard to this matter, so I’ll skip them for now. At the moment we are …
Software architecture and its different forms have been discussed in the previous post. The performance matrices are diverse because each layer has unique tasks and functions. The mandatory performance stats for each level to be tracked during the performance test are listed below. Client TierEach client machine application must run more efficiently to produce results …
Software architecture is a way of organizing components that work together to complete a single function or a set of related functions. The foundation of an architecture on which software can be developed can consist of one or more components. An architectural design for software helps define and illustrate the components and the connections between …
The two opposite sides of the same coin are software engineering and performance testing. Also, the duties of a performance engineer are different from those of a performance tester. Thus, PTLC and PELC were created to simplify the processes involved in Performance Testing and Performance Engineering respectively. First, let’s try to understand how performance testing …
Software performance engineering is a methodical technique for building software that achieves performance goals. In the early stages of software development, it is most important during the performance testing phase to create a tuned software application whose performance meets all non-functional requirements. Software performance testing, on the other hand, is the process of evaluating the …
