Case Study: Cognizant achieves multi-cloud performance testing scalability and £60,000 annual cost savings with OpenText Micro Focus LoadRunner Cloud

Micro Focus LoadRunner Cloud supports digital transformation in multi-cloud environment.

Cognizant worked with the largest UK‑based energy and services company to migrate internal and customer‑facing applications from an on‑premises datacenter to a multi‑cloud environment (Azure, AWS and Cognizant Cloud). The organisation needed a single, end‑to‑end performance testing process to support a wide range of technologies and protocols (SAP, Oracle, Java, etc.), align testing across three geographies and four divisions, consolidate tools, and reduce costs while improving SLA visibility.

Cognizant implemented Micro Focus LoadRunner Cloud to deliver elastic, cloud‑based load testing across 20+ regions, running 5,000 virtual users with more than 1,000 test scripts and 600+ scenarios. The solution scaled to 50 users per load generator, simplified regional test execution, provided real‑time dashboards for SLA compliance, and delivered about £60,000 in annual tool and infrastructure savings along with marked productivity improvements.
