Short description
The goal of the project is to provide a single entry/exit point to the performance analysis of Fabric by:
- Providing an open, well-designed, and thoroughly documented side-car service for the detailed performance analysis of distributed Fabric transaction traces.
- And integrating it into the Caliper load generation and response measurement process as part of the final report.
The project will heavily build on the PSWG's Performance Sandbox, aiming to "standardize" its flow and methodologies independently of the applied technologies.
