You picked

Launch or sale-day readiness

A launch, sale, results day or campaign is coming and the platform has to hold.

Prove the peak before it arrives.

What we run

  • Workload model built from your analytics and expected peak
  • Load, spike and stress runs at the peak and beyond
  • Autoscaling, caching and CDN behaviour checked under load
  • Go/no-go review with your team

What you get

  • Pass/fail against your SLAs
  • Capacity headroom and the first component to break
  • Prioritised fix list before the date
  • Re-test evidence after fixes

Service pillars

Three practices. One performance discipline.

From pre-release load tests to production reliability and code-level tuning — one team owns performance end to end.

DAQE

    Load, peak traffic, stress, capacity, spike and event-readiness testing.

  • Digital Experience Assurance

    Omnichannel, browser, API and microservices benchmarking.

  • Continuous Quality Integration

    Performance gates in CI/CD pipelines and shift-left performance consulting (PTDD).

SRE

Site Reliability Engineering

Infrastructure resilience and continuous observability, built for availability.

  • System Resilience Engineering

    Endurance and soak testing, chaos engineering and scalability analysis.

  • Monitoring & Observability

    APM setup, real user monitoring and synthetic alerting.

  • Production Incident Engineering

    Post-incident performance forensics and root-cause analysis.

APO

Application Performance Optimization

Deep-dive diagnostics and code-level tuning to maximize speed and minimize overhead.

  • Performance Optimization & Consulting

    Architectural bottleneck analysis and database tuning.

  • Cloud & Infrastructure Engineering

    FinOps cloud cost optimization, CDN and latency reduction.

Overview

Each test answers a different question.

We pick the test types your risk actually needs — not a fixed menu.

Load testing

Does the system meet its targets at expected traffic?

Stress testing

Where does it break, and does it fail gracefully?

Spike testing

What happens when traffic jumps in seconds, not hours?

Soak / endurance testing

Do memory leaks, connection exhaustion or slow drift appear over hours?

Capacity & scalability testing

How much headroom is there, and does adding resources actually help?

API & microservices benchmarking

Which service, endpoint or query is the weakest link in the chain?

Outcomes

Why teams bring us in.

Performance work that pays for itself — in fewer incidents, faster pages and smaller cloud bills.

Shift-left approach

Catch degradation early in the pipeline, before it turns into a costly rewrite.

Tool-agnostic expertise

Native experience with k6, Gatling, JMeter, LoadRunner and NeoLoad — we work with your stack, not ours.

FinOps and ROI minded

We tune code and infrastructure to cut cloud spend without giving up performance.

Metrics & deliverables

Evidence, not opinions.

Every engagement ends with numbers you can act on and assets you keep.

Metrics we report

Response time p50 / p95 / p99
What typical and worst-case users actually experience.
Throughput (RPS / TPS)
How much work the system completes per second.
Error rate
Failed requests and timeouts under each load level.
Apdex & Core Web Vitals
User-perceived speed for web journeys.
Saturation
CPU, memory, DB connections, threads and queues as load grows.
Cost per 1,000 requests
What performance costs you in the cloud.

Deliverables you keep

  • Test strategy and workload model
  • Reusable test scripts committed to your repository
  • Results report with graphs per scenario
  • Bottleneck and root-cause report with prioritised fixes
  • Capacity model and scaling headroom
  • Observability dashboards and alert rules
  • Re-test evidence after optimisation

Top findings

  1. High

    Checkout DB connection pool saturates at ~4,600 users; p99 spikes follow.

    Raise pool size and add a read replica for order lookups.

  2. Medium

    Product-image requests bypass the CDN on cache miss.

    Fix cache headers; expected origin load −40%.

  3. Low

    Unused autoscaling headroom overnight.

    Schedule scale-down; lowers baseline cost.

Process

How a performance engagement runs.

Targets first, then evidence, then fixes — and monitoring so the gains hold.

  1. 01

    Discover & Strategy

    Business-critical journeys, KPIs and SLAs mapped, with the traffic peaks you actually need to survive.

  2. 02

    Simulate & Validate

    High-fidelity traffic simulations with k6 or Gatling against realistic data and user behaviour.

  3. 03

    Diagnose & Optimize

    APM traces and logs, database tuning and code refinement aimed at the real bottleneck.

  4. 04

    Monitor & Scale

    Round-the-clock observability, alerting and self-healing setups so performance holds as you grow.

Engagement model

Ways to engage.

Start with a single test cycle or make performance a continuous practice.

Event-readiness sprint

A fixed-scope cycle: workload model, test runs, fixes and a go/no-go before your date.

Best for: Launches, sale days, results days and campaigns.

Assessment & optimisation

Diagnose the bottlenecks, implement or guide the fixes, and prove the gain with a re-test.

Best for: Slow applications, rising cloud bills and recurring incidents.

Continuous performance

Pipeline gates, scheduled regression runs, observability and SRE support on a monthly retainer.

Best for: Teams releasing weekly or daily.
