Testing E-commerce Site Scalability With TPC-W
نویسنده
چکیده
Being able to assess the scalability of Web and e-commerce sites is a challenge. The Transaction Processing Council (TPC) recently released a benchmark for e-commerce sites. This benchmark, called TPC-W, measures a system under test using Web Interactions per Second (WIPS) as its primary metric. This paper describes the benchmark's main features, the authors’ experience in building a TPC-W compliant ecommerce site and a workload generator for TPC-W. It also presents performance metrics and an analysis of self-similarity obtained with the TPC-W site.

TPC-W: a benchmark for E-commerce - Internet Computing, IEEE
Scalability is one of the many challenges in designing an e-commerce site. Providers need to know how the site’s performance — measured in terms of response time and throughput — varies as more and more users access it. Will performance degrade significantly beyond a given load level, or will the site deliver acceptably even as the load surges? What is the maximum number of transactions that ca...
