Data Center Testing

Test data center performance and security using real-world applications, traffic load from millions of users, and live attacks

Data centers are constantly subjected to increasing bandwidth demands and rapidly evolving security attacks. Organizations must test data centers to ensure service levels for end users, to keep sensitive information secure, and to optimize performance to handle peak traffic loads.

Data Center Testing Challenges

Each component within a data center infrastructure must be tested for performance, security, and stability. This cannot be done with generic testing: servers, load balancers, virtualized resources, security devices, and more must be validated against the unique traffic that affects your organization. Traditionally, organizations have relied on testing solutions that cannot:

• Create the necessary Internet-scale load and network conditions to measure and optimize performance and stability.
• Generate live security attacks to pinpoint weaknesses in data center defenses.
• Precisely measure the particular behaviors of virtualized resources across many different scenarios.

BreakingPoint Data Center Testing Solutions

BreakingPoint products allow organizations to test real-world data center performance, security, and stability using blended application traffic and real-time security attacks at massive load. The easy-to-use interface and small form factor of every BreakingPoint CTM make it simple to emulate the authentic conditions of any production environment without having to build out an entire lab. BreakingPoint products enable organizations to:

• Produce a standardized Data Center Resiliency Score™ to give advance insight into product capabilities and configuration requirements.
• Understand the exact performance, security, and stability of competitive data center devices in a fraction of the time.
• Save up to 50% on IT infrastructure investments by purchasing only what’s needed.
• Augment the scale of functional testing tools to simulate a much larger number of users—without spending a fortune on additional functional testing licenses.
