Testing The Effect Of Amazon CloudFront On The Performance Of The Microservices App Using A Performance Testing Tool.
We’ll test the effect of using Amazon CloudFront on the performance of the microservices app on the Amazon EKS cluster using a Performance Test tool as a dummy load. We’ll check metrics that were gathered during load testing of the Amazon EKS cluster on the Test Report module. We’ll also monitor the performance of the system in real-time. I’m sure you will be very surprised when we examine the results in the Metrics, Test result, and Service Map. We’ll explore how Amazon CloudFront can be used for caching the Kubernetes clusters’ content to ensure optimal performance and reliability. We will learn CloudFront in detail along with its other features such as minimizing the effects of a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack using together with AWS WAF.
We will do these practically step by step in this article.
