Case Studies

Requirement:

• Conceive a topology for the RabbitMQ deployment that Services the functional requirements while remaining as simple and stable as possible 
• Meets the requirement in terms of load and absorb load spikes and meets the requirement in terms high availability 
• Implement Jmeter scripts (jmx files) to test load the RabbitMQ deployment
• Analyse results and enhance performance following load testing 

Deliverables :

• A document describing the conceived RabbitMQ topology
• A document describing the configuration of RabbitMQ for that specific topology 
• Jmeter scripts 
• A document describing the performance approach (how to interpret the performance and the behaviour of RabbitMQ under heavy load) 

Outcome:

 All deliverables successfully completed. 

NobleProg received feedback from the client stating that they had been very happy with the choice of consultant and the high standard of work performed.  They were especially pleased with how he interacted with the team, working well alongside them, and providing a lot of ongoing added value guidance, ensuring that knowledge transfer was able to take place.  

Requirement:

• High level architecture review
• Support movement of host business critical processes onto a new platform
• Support using jBPM for decision automation

Deliverables:

• Guidance on the technical aspects of the project 
• Researching and implementing solutions
• Design and deliver a number of bespoke training sessions to allow engineers to independently develop future, complex jBPM solutions

Outcome:

A long term, complex consultancy project where NobleProg were embedded in the client team. The movement of the business critical processes onto a new platform has been successful and there was then ongoing work to support the businesses team in preparing them to move to independent working. The training provided has been very well received and has enabled many staff to move across into new roles supporting the systems on the new platform.

Requirement:

• Analyse performance of newly developed web applications
• Development, integration and execution of bespoke performance tests
• Undertake training onsite to transfer knowledge to staff

Deliverables:

• Evaluate web application testing for newly developed web applications
• Remote preparation of tests and integration within systems
• Executing tests and providing feedback to development team
• Devise and deliver a training programme to enable staff to carry out tests independently in the future

Outcome:

Our consultant successfully developed and integrated the required performance tests within the company infrastructure.

Transfer of knowledge was successful. A bespoke 3 day course was delivered to existing staff and they are now able to undertake the required tests independently.
