As of few days ago, the service is generally available across Microsoft Azure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are we talking about here?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are developing an app or a service that needs to handle high-scale load, you might want to test its performance, scalability, and capacity before deploying it to production. However, setting up and managing a load testing infrastructure can be complex and costly. That&#8217;s why Microsoft has introduced Azure Load Testing Service, a fully managed service that enables you to generate high-scale load without managing complex infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-us\/azure\/load-testing\/media\/overview-what-is-azure-load-testing\/azure-load-testing-architecture.svg?WT.mc_id=AZ-MVP-5002880\" alt=\"Azure Load Testing and Azure Monitor integration\" width=\"NaN\" height=\"NaN\" class=\"no-lazyload\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Azure Load Testing and Azure Monitor integration<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The service simulates traffic for your applications, regardless of where they are hosted. You can use it to test apps hosted in Azure, on-premises, or in other clouds. You can also load test services that have no public endpoint by deploying it in a virtual network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Supported Azure resource types is here: <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/azure\/load-testing\/resource-supported-azure-resource-types?WT.mc_id=AZ-MVP-5002880\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">link<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">IT integrates with Azure Monitor, including Application Insights and Container Insights. It aims to collect and display detailed resource metrics from the Azure services that your app depends on. These metrics help you identify performance bottlenecks and optimize your app&#8217;s performance, scalability, and capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How does it work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To use this service, you need to create a load test project in the Azure portal or in Visual Studio Code. Then, you need to define your load test scenario. The scenario specifies the number of virtual users, the duration, the URL of your app, and the HTTP requests to send. You can also customize your load test scenario by adding variables, headers, assertions, and scripts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you have defined your load test scenario, you can run it and monitor the results in real time. You can see the client-side metrics, such as the number of virtual users, the request response time, or the number of requests per second. Besides that, server-side metrics is also available, such as the CPU utilization, the memory usage, or the network throughput of your Azure services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pricing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Azure Load Testing is priced based on the number of virtual user hours (VUH) you consume during your load tests. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"202\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ituziast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/AzureLoadTesting_Prices-1024x202.jpg\" alt=\"Table representing Azure Load Testing Prices (https:\/\/azure.microsoft.com\/en-us\/pricing\/details\/load-testing)\" class=\"wp-image-1794 no-lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ituziast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/AzureLoadTesting_Prices-1024x202.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ituziast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/AzureLoadTesting_Prices-300x59.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ituziast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/AzureLoadTesting_Prices-768x151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ituziast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/AzureLoadTesting_Prices.jpg 1046w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Pricing and purchasing options (Region: West Europe, US Dollar)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A Virtual User Hour = (# of virtual users simulated * the duration the simulation in minutes) \/ 60 minutes per hour.
