Load testing is a way to stress test a system.
By creating lots of load on a system, you can see how it will react at peak levels. Without load testing, you never know how your system will react at peak levels or with many simultaneous users. You expose yourself to the risk of having deployed a system with hardware and software that is too slow or unresponsive. This type of mistake could cost millions of dollars in hardware, network and software redesign, customers could be lost and users lose faith in your ability to provide the systems they need. With the Portent family of products you can assess whether your system will scale.
