Stress-Testing tools in Azure to optimize your workload reliability

Peter De Tender
Microsoft
Abstract

For years, you've hopefully been relying on the Microsoft Well-Architected Framework (WAF) as a starting point to have your workloads set up in a highly available, redundant architecture. Following those guidelines is key to get reliably running business critical applications for your users or customers.

But even after following all the guidelines, did you really know your applications would run as expected? With this session, I'm going to take the guesswork out of that question, and walk you through different tools in Azure, Azure Load Testing and Azure Chaos Studio, which help by stress-testing your critical workloads, running in App Services, Containers, CosmosDB or traditional Virtual Machines.

As usual in Peter's sessions, this will be packed with live demos and only a bare minimum of slides.

Bio

Peter has an extensive background in architecting, deploying, managing and training on Microsoft technologies, dating back to Windows NT4 Server in 1996, all the way to the latest and modern cloud solutions available in Azure today. With a passion for cloud Architecture, Devops and App Modernization, Peter always has a story to share on how to optimize your Enterprise-ready cloud workloads. When he's not providing a technical Azure workshop out of his role as Microsoft Technical Trainer at Microsoft Corp, for which he relocated from Belgium to Seattle early 2022, he's developing some new apps in .NET Blazor, or trying another bread baking recipe in his home kitchen. Peter was an Azure MVP for 5 years, is a Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT) for +15 years and still actively involved in Tech Communities as public speaker, keynote presenter, technical writer and mentor.
