Perfecto Mobile announced that MobileCloud Performance is enhanced to include cloud-based load testing.
In collaboration with BlazeMeter’s Apache JMeter compatible cloud service, MobileCloud Performance enables teams to easily scale load testing to hundreds of thousands of virtual users from anywhere around the globe, and at the same time measure end user experience using real devices.
This new, affordable and easy-to-use offering enables teams of all sizes to begin testing on-demand within minutes, without internal infrastructure.
Cloud-based performance testing lowers adoption barriers and streamlines the testing workflow by eliminating required IT coordination for each test cycle, thus simplifying the process and increasing test efficiency. As an on-demand performance testing solution, MobileCloud Performance enables development, QA and performance teams to begin testing projects earlier and more frequently across mobile applications. Optimizing performance using real devices increases confidence when deploying into production. These advanced capabilities support more comprehensive testing, and in turn, more predictable and optimized application performance.
“In today’s rapidly changing mobile environment, development teams are being asked to deliver better software, faster. Having a more efficient workflow is a key enabler in adopting continuous testing,” said Eran Yaniv, CEO, Perfecto Mobile. “A cloud-based approach offers a faster, more cost effective method to execute performance testing. This new enhancement to MobileCloud Performance complements our range of local, internal, public and private device clouds and expands our integrated testing suite. Testing the performance of applications without extra hardware and software investments allows development teams to get started easily and deliver results immediately. This enhancement, in addition to upcoming releases, allows Perfecto Mobile to serve a wider base for functional and performance testing across all mobile application types and development stages.”
This enhanced offering provides Perfecto Mobile customers a cloud-based Apache JMeter compatible load testing solution, the leading open-source load testing application. Open source development and testing tools are helping teams experiment and determine preferred development approaches, and support existing tools, practices and know how.
MobileCloud Performance continues to support customers’ existing load tools and now offers:
- Simple self-service platform that allows users to design load tests and scale to production-volume (100,000s) in minutes.
- Affordable cloud-based solution, avoids the hardware, network and software investments required to build out an internal lab.
- Predictable end user experience by testing varying load and network conditions on real devices.

Like most digital transformation shifts, organizations often prioritize productivity and leave security and observability to keep pace. This usually translates to both the mass implementation of new technology and fragmented monitoring and observability (M&O) tooling. In the era of AI and varied cloud architecture, a disparate observability function can be dangerous. IT teams will lack a complete picture of their IT environment, making it harder to diagnose issues while slowing down mean time to resolve (MTTR). In fact, according to recent data from the SolarWinds State of Monitoring & Observability Report, 77% of IT personnel said the lack of visibility across their on-prem and cloud architecture was an issue ...
In MEAN TIME TO INSIGHT Episode 23, Shamus McGillicuddy, VP of Research, Network Infrastructure and Operations, at EMA discusses the NetOps labor shortage ...
Technology management is evolving, and in turn, so is the scope of FinOps. The FinOps Foundation recently updated their mission statement from "advancing the people who manage the value of cloud" to "advancing the people who manage the value of technology." This seemingly small change solidifies a larger evolution: FinOps practitioners have organically expanded to be focused on more than just cloud cost optimization. Today, FinOps teams are largely — and quickly — expanding their job descriptions, evolving into a critical function for managing the full value of technology ...
Enterprises are under pressure to scale AI quickly. Yet despite considerable investment, adoption continues to stall. One of the most overlooked reasons is vendor sprawl ... In reality, no organization deliberately sets out to create sprawling vendor ecosystems. More often, complexity accumulates over time through well-intentioned initiatives, such as enterprise-wide digital transformation efforts, point solutions, or decentralized sourcing strategies ...
Nearly every conversation about AI eventually circles back to compute. GPUs dominate the headlines while cloud platforms compete for workloads and model benchmarks drive investment decisions. But underneath that noise, a quieter infrastructure challenge is taking shape. The real bottleneck in enterprise AI is not processing power, it is the ability to store, manage and retrieve the relentless volumes of data that AI systems generate, consume and multiply ...
The 2026 Observability Survey from Grafana Labs paints a vivid picture of an industry maturing fast, where AI is welcomed with careful conditions, SaaS economics are reshaping spending decisions, complexity remains a defining challenge, and open standards continue to underpin it all ...
The observability industry has an evolving relationship with AI. We're not skeptics, but it's clear that trust in AI must be earned ... In Grafana Labs' annual Observability Survey, 92% said they see real value in AI surfacing anomalies before they cause downtime. Another 91% endorsed AI for forecasting and root cause analysis. So while the demand is there, customers need it to be trustworthy, as the survey also found that the practitioners most enthusiastic about AI are also the most insistent on explainability ...
In the modern enterprise, the conversation around AI has moved past skepticism toward a stage of active adoption. According to our 2026 State of IT Trends Report: The Human Side of Autonomous AI, nearly 90% of IT professionals view AI as a net positive, and this optimism is well-founded. We are seeing agentic AI move beyond simple automation to actively streamlining complex data insights and eliminating the manual toil that has long hindered innovation. However, as we integrate these autonomous agents into our ecosystems, the fundamental DNA of the IT role is evolving ...
AI workloads require an enormous amount of computing power ... What's also becoming abundantly clear is just how quickly AI's computing needs are leading to enterprise systems failure. According to Cockroach Labs' State of AI Infrastructure 2026 report, enterprise systems are much closer to failure than their organizations realize. The report ... suggests AI scale could cause widespread failures in as little as one year — making it a clear risk for business performance and reliability.
The quietest week your engineering team has ever had might also be its best. No alarms going off. No escalations. No frantic Teams or Slack threads at 2 a.m. Everything humming along exactly as it should. And somewhere in a leadership meeting, someone looks at the metrics dashboard, sees a flat line of incidents and says: "Seems like things are pretty calm over there. Do we really need all those people?" ... I've spent many years in engineering, and this pattern keeps repeating ...
