Building High Performance Web Applications
Details
Jon Salis will start the night off examining automated JSON API Stress testing. High traffic JSON APIs can be at the core of your business. We will explore load testing all the various endpoints of your API in an iterative and dynamic way using Apache JMeter.
For the second part of the evening, we will discuss auditing frontend performance with Chrome DevTools. Join Alex and Laith for a deep dive into practical frontend performance profiling. We’ll diagnose a site live while staying focused on what really matters: your end user’s experience.
