Looking for good WURFL REST API benchmarks

Postby trickydee » Thu Oct 22, 2015 6:34 pm

Are there any good benchmarks in existence to test a wurfl api (v1/json) with reasonable randomness and distribution?

Hello,

We have not publicly published any benchmarks of this sort for the WURFL Cloud service as this is also subject to a latency overhead of the public internet and can vary depending on your ISP.

When testing an on premise installation of the WURFL API, we recommend passing actual User Agents that you are seeing in your web logs in order to similute live traffic to your WURFL API instance.

Thank you,

Elliot

Hi Elliott,
I think I was not clear, I am not looking for benchmark results but for a benchmark suite to drive a premise instance of the API so that we see how it performs. We have two different ones but it would be good to compare them as different load tools tend to scale better or worse.

Best

We do not provide any official benchmark suite to use when testing the performance of a WURFL API installation. However, most suites will suffice for your use case. The main point to keep in mind when performance testing is to send a meaningful sample of User Agents that are representative of real traffic that you see in your production logs. This should ideally be a non-unique list of User Agents as this is a better simulation of your production environment.

Thank you,

Elliot
