WELLS FARGO REDUCES MTTR, OPTIMIZES INFRASTRUCTURE COST AND DELIVERS SCALABLE APPLICATIONS

CHALLENGE

Wells Fargo, a 150-year old bank with assets over $1 trillion was using a legacy tool to monitor the resource impact and veracity of online transactions alongside identifying impact of different jobs on CUI transaction timings.

The test setup could not analyze a test result & compare them with other results. Legacy application was also unable to pinpoint issues and took 3-5 days for completion, a cardinal sin in the highly regulated banking industry.

Excessive alerts were being generated by the legacy tool that was also utilizing a high number of resources to generate the required load on Wells Fargo’s test setup. The legacy solution was running fixed concurrent user model, a far cry from imitating real-world traffic.

Case Study- Cavisson Performance Testing

OVERVIEW

With the onset of COVID-19, traditional sales channels witnessed a drop, and the focus shifted on providing an exceptional online customer experience, with organizations observing a 46% YoY growth in online orders. Add to this, the retailers moved from an on-premise deployment to Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and had to make sure that the shift was in line with their scalability needs in terms of handling real-world user traffic.

Furthermore, projections at retailers estimated that compared with 2019, the year 2020 would see a huge increase in revenue generation via online channels (~6x times), and the organization could not afford downtime to affect customer experience and, in turn, revenue.

Readiness of Critical Banking System ensured by NetStorm

CHALLENGE

One of the top five banks in the US, a 150-year old organization with assets over $1.7 trillion, was using a legacy tool for their load testing requirements. Among the applications being covered by the said tool was the bank’s Fraud Management System, which is responsible for identifying fraudulent activities among millions of transactions (occurring daily at a rate of thousands per second).

It was of utmost importance that the lab environment handled real-world load scenarios in order to replicate issues occurring in the production environment. The legacy tool was unable to generate the quality traffic via synthetic load generation, which lead to an inability to reproduce or highlight issues with the Fraud Management System, as the application’s production-like code path were not getting exercised.
