How to increase our Azure Load Testing Service current engine limit from 45 to 100+?
At present Azure Load Testing Service supports only 11250 users/45engines (each engine supports 250users).
We have a requirement to test the application by adding high scale load approx. 75000 to 100000 users.
How to test this scenario and increase our current engine limit from 45 to 100+
Hi sarfaraz_k ,
Azure load testing has default limits on the number of engine instances and the number of concurrent test runs.
If you aren't already at the maximum limit, you can request an increase. We aren't currently able to approve increase requests past our maximum limitations stated above. To request an increase for your default limit, contact Azure Support. Default limits vary by offer category type.
Alternatively, you can also configure Azure Load Testing for high-scale load tests by using multiple test engine instances to scale out the number of virtual users for your load test. You can also monitor the test instance health metrics in the Azure Load Testing dashboard to achieve an optimal load distribution.
