Amazon recently announced a competition for developers using their web services. Developers can submit various business ideas that use amazon services and after the best entry will get a prize of 100,000 $
My idea is to use Amazon Ec2 services to create a load testing application for websites and other web services. A cluster image will be created, which is capable of bombarding the application under load test with a lot of service requests. To increase the load many images can be loaded into the cluster with the same loading application.
The different images can log various kinds of parameters like, round trip delay etc at various load situations and plot graphs to see how the application under test scales.
