Scaling Strategy

The scalability of the framework is constantly improved and tested to allow more traffic with less infrastructure.
These are the current data loads officially supported by Siemplify (average results collected during a 10 minute test):

Prerequisites

Connector \ Action Execution Time (avg): 7-10 seconds
Connector \ Action Result Size (avg): 500KB – 1MB
Request: An end-to-end flow of sending a request to the agent and getting the response back into Siemplify
A single request equals a single action execution or a single connector run

Basic Publisher Deployment (4 cores, 8GB RAM, 100GB Storage)

Rate: 200 requests per minute

Scaled Up Publisher (8 cores, 16GB RAM, 200GB Storage)

Rate: 300 requests per minute

Basic Agent (4 cores, 8GB RAM, 100GB Storage)

Actions Rate: 96 actions\minute
Connectors Rate: 96 runs\minute (e.g. 16 connectors, each connector runs every 10 seconds, each brings back a result)
Combined Rate: 96 requests\minute (e.g. 60 Actions + 6 Connectors, each connector runs every 10 seconds, each brings back a result)

Scaled Up Agent (8 cores, 16GB RAM, 100GB Storage)

Actions Rate: 144 actions\minute (completed full run)
Connectors Rate: 144 runs\minute (e.g. 24 connectors, each connector runs every 10 seconds, each brings back a result)
Combined Rate: 144 requests\minute (e.g. 90 Actions + 9 Connectors, each connector runs every 10 seconds, each brings back a result)
