​
Cloud Infrastructure Overview

LoadForge leverages cloud technology to scale up large numbers of users for load testing. Our dynamic system enables rapid deployment and cleanup of cloud instances, ensuring efficient resource utilization.

​
Test Hours and Options

Managed Infrastructure

Use LoadForge’s default test hours on our managed cloud infrastructure for hassle-free testing.

Your Own Cloud

Bring your own cloud account for enhanced control and potential cost savings.

​
Key Benefits

Our cloud-based approach delivers three primary advantages:

Each benefit is carefully designed to provide maximum value while maintaining environmental responsibility.

Cost-Effective Testing

  • Starting from $0.05 per 10,000 users per test
  • Transparent pricing structure
  • Pay only for what you use

Enterprise-Grade Performance

  • Generate millions of SSL transactions per second
  • Support for massive concurrent users
  • Real-time scaling capabilities

Environmental Responsibility

  • Resources used only when needed
  • Efficient resource allocation
  • Minimal carbon footprint

LoadForge proudly contributes 1% of all revenue (not just profit) to fighting climate change, making us “The Green Load Test Company.”

​
Cloud Infrastructure Process

​
Deployment Workflow

When you initiate a test, LoadForge executes a streamlined process:

  1. Provisioning: Launch brand-new virtual machines
  2. Configuration: Install all necessary dependencies
  3. Execution: Run your load test
  4. Cleanup: Securely wipe data and destroy instances

The entire setup process takes approximately 1 minute, even when deploying 20+ test workers.

​
Data Security

After test completion:

  • All test data is wiped from cloud instances
  • Instances are completely destroyed
  • Results are securely stored in LoadForge’s cloud

​
Custom Cloud Integration

​
Using Your DigitalOcean Account

While LoadForge provides managed infrastructure, you can integrate your own DigitalOcean account for enhanced control.

For newcomers, we recommend starting with LoadForge’s managed cloud to simplify the initial setup process. You can always switch to your own cloud account later.

​
