Look, just because the Matrix was a complete virtual reality (complete with guns and motorcycles and the girl in the red dress), the virtualization fad in our REAL reality isn't quite so sexy. Beneath any gigantic array of virtualized hosts or zones, there are still physical machines and infrastructure supporting your application's performance. Even though I think it's been 5 years since I actually was forced to lay hands physically on a piece of hardware, most of us performance testers are still expected to be just as effective testing on these abstracted virtual systems. In this show the PerfBytes guys will review the challenges, pitfalls and good practices to conduct your load testing with shared resources and consolidated data sources. James gets to do a Perf Rant about running load generators on virtual machines.Original Air Date: Tuesday, December 4th, 2012Guests: Alon Girmonsky (@alongir) from Blazemeter.com
