Program setup program-setup
After onboarding, the business owner sets up the program by adding a description and defining key performance indicators (KPIs). These KPIs are then used for performance testing.
Program setup with Cloud Manager program-setup-cloud-manager
Follow these steps to set up the program and define KPIs.
-
Log into Cloud Manager at
https://my.cloudmanager.adobe.comand select the appropriate organization. -
Click Setup Program to start the setup process.
-
In the Setup Program dialog box, you can enter program information across three tabs:
- General
- KPI
- Provisioning
-
On the General tab, add a description for your program and optionally upload a thumbnail by clicking on Change Photo.
-
On the KPI tab, define your KPIs. In this example, separate KPIs are defined for AEM Sites and AEM Assets. Specify the KPIs for the products that you have licensed.
See the section KPIs for more details on how KPIs are measured in Cloud Manager.
-
On the Provisioning tab, you can define the on-demand scaling options for your environments if autoscaling is enabled for your program.
Autoscaling is applicable to the production environment only and may not be available for all customer programs.
-
Click Save.
Your program is created. It may take several minutes for resources to be provisioned before the program is ready for use.
Edit a program editing-program
You can edit programs after they are set up. Follow these steps to edit a program.
-
Log into Cloud Manager at
https://my.cloudmanager.adobe.comand select the appropriate organization. -
Navigate to the program from the Cloud Manager home screen.
-
Click Edit program to update or modify your program from the Overview page.
-
The Edit Program dialog displays, allowing you to update your program. See the section Program Setup with Cloud Manager for details on the fields available.
-
Click Update to save your changes.
The changes are saved immediately to Cloud Manager, but are not reflected in your environments until the next pipeline run.
If you have not yet created a pipeline, see Configuring Production Pipelines and Configuring Non-Production Pipelines.
Switch between programs swithing-programs
When working on a program, you can quickly switch to another program without returning to the Cloud Manager overview page.
Use the action bar to switch to another program, edit the current program, or add a new program.
KPIs kpis
Sites KPIs are measured on tests run in the staging environment. Typically, these KPIs are scaled down to fit the capabilities of the staging environment.
For example, a user expecting an average of 1000 page views per minute in their production environment, and has four Dispatcher/publishing servers in production, should scale this scenario to 250 page views per minute. This scenario assumes that their staging environment consists of only a single dispatcher/publish server pair.
Assets performance testing involves repeatedly uploading assets over a 30-minute period. The processing time for each asset and various system-level metrics are measured throughout the test.
You may have a content delivery network (CDN) such as Akamai or CloudFront in front of your production environment. Because Cloud Manager tests against the staging environment directly, the KPI should reflect only the traffic expected to pass through the CDN. That is, the cache misses. Typically, this experience is a relatively small subset of the total production traffic.
