Recommended guidance
WhatChoose areAWS instance types for AIQ based on the Instancerole typesof thatthe arehost, supportedexpected workload, browser or API execution volume, storage needs, and monitoring results. Instance-type guidance can become outdated as AWS offerings and AIQ requirements change.
Selection factors
- AIQ application server, database, Test Node, reporting, or utility role.
- CPU, memory, disk throughput, network throughput, and browser concurrency.
- Operating system and dependency compatibility.
- Cloud region availability, cost model, and scaling policy.
- Performance test load profile and evidence retention needs.
Validation workflow
