[Red5] load testing

[Lee McColl-Sylvester]

You can get the dates from the website www.osflash.org/red5

 

It is suggested to wait until build 0.6 before building anything
extensive, though of course, you can start developing any time you
like... I just wouldn't recommend selling anything you build until this
time ;-)

 

John Grden (see John, I spelled it right this time) and the lads are
better to answer if it will be stable enough before this, but either
way, it sounds like you will have more than enough time.

 

Regards,

Lee

Thanks for the quick response this morning Lee. One of the key benefits
of Red5 for us was the native flash data types, being able to pass
around native arrays and objects without having to parse xml/strings. I
have looked into Oregano this morning and, while providing a good
framework, it still uses an xml socket connection, so still has to
serialiase/deseralise string data.

Our project doesn't have to be delivered for another 7-8 months yet, so
maybe Red5 will be in a stable release by then... does anyone know a
final release date estimate yet?

Do you require streaming live video or sound?  If not, I would advise
using Oregano, as it support great user management, persistent data and
is much more mature than Red5.  Otherwise, you may have to wait a while
for a platform that fully supports your requirements while being stable
enough to manage the user count you are expecting.

Lee

Hi All. I am investigating the possibility of using the Red5 server for
a chat application. The app will be using a flash front end (obviously!)
and either remote shared objects or 'normal' messages through a socket
connection. 

 

The application has to support 2500 concurrent users, so my question is:
Has anyone performed or know of any load testing utilities that we can
use to test? Or any indication of performance statistics would be very
useful!

 

Thanks in advance,

 

James
