An important concept was to simulate database users called Virtual Users in parallel (rather than concurrently) to accurately simulate a real database workload with multiple users running from separate systems. Cached vs Scaled Workloads. The workload also outputted the data from the Virtual Users by simulating individual terminals.

For example, the IMDG must be able to efficiently create millions of objects in each server to make use of its huge storage capacity. Given all this, we thought it would be a good opportunity to see how we are doing relative to the competition, and in particular, relative to Microsoft’s AppFabric caching for Windows on-premise servers.
