It's a best practice to conduct periodic stress/load testing against your API endpoints to
ensure the end-to-end solution is capable of handling your expected traffic volume based on your
performance specifications. Apigee leverages autoscaling to properly handle incremental
organic traffic increases; however, there are use cases that may require capacity or autoscaling
tuning to meet your traffic demands.
If you want to perform stress/load/penetration testing, file a support ticket with
Apigee Support and provide the necessary
details. You must perform the tests yourself, but
Apigee Support requires prior
notification about the tests. To address issues observed during the testing, users must create
a new support ticket instead of using the same support ticket that was used to notify about the
planned tests.
