Qa test scale dilemma, social it and the big shared cloud
1. QA Test Scale Dilemma, Social IT
and the Big Shared Cloud
2. Will your application behave as
expected even when it is
introduced with huge amount of
activity?
3. Main App Stress Factors
• Transactions Performance
– How many Per (minute, hour, day, etc.)
– How efficient are you at
• Multithreading
• Scaling
• Memory cleanup
4. Main App Stress Factors
• Maintenance of all that Data
– Max manageable items
(products, customers, etc.)
– Architecture resilience while handling
• Lots of writes and reads
• Lifetime cycle maintenance
operations
5. Main App Stress Factors
Variety of data inputs may trigger
situations your application was not set to
handle
6. Main App Stress Factors
• Network and Systems Load and timeouts
– From the customer’s remote device
– Through the WAN
– Into your LAN
– Relevant servers and storage systems
7. Main App Stress Factors
How does the 3rd party tools your
application uses, perform under the load?
8. 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…??
9. The QA Dilemma
• Full Scale testing via Cloud Computing?
–“Loan" resources
– Amazon (EC2)
– Lower price such as 1And1
– Still costly over time

12. New Approach: Big Shared
Cloud
It is all about sharing. You give and then
you receive so much more
13. New Approach: Big Shared
Cloud
Everyone builds Hybrid Clouds anyway, but
they use it for themselves.
14. New Approach: Big Shared
Cloud
We use the same technology and solutions
that comprise the Hybrid Cloud to setup a
Big Shared Cloud
15. New Approach: Big Shared
Cloud
CA Technologies for example sets their
own testing cloud, Oracle does the same
and so do other companies
16. New Approach: Big Shared
Cloud
What happens if all those separate Hybrid
Clouds are made available to all the
participant companies?
17. New Approach: Big Shared
Cloud
Every company spends what it can, but
gets access to so much more
18. New Approach: Big Shared
Cloud
The test environment has a much wider
variety as every company pre-loads its own
software.
19. New Approach: Big Shared
Cloud
The Big Shared Cloud can be turned into a
great marketing tool showing off
company's products in a helpful way.
20. New Approach: Big Shared
Cloud
Time sharing of the resources and security
management will require special attention
21. New Approach: Big Shared
Cloud
But hey, you need to invest into stuff that
matters!
22. New Approach: Big Shared
Cloud
THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF A NEW
IT Revolution
EMERGING:
The Social IT
Powered by the Big Shared Cloud…
