In the last year, I've spent many hours writing patches for libuv and Node to collect new metrics. The goal of this was to indirectly infer the state of the application without introducing measurable overhead. I've run a few hundred hours of benchmarks and collected over one million data points to make sure my analysis was correct. Eventually, I plan to write about all aspects of my research, but today we will focus on a metric that has already been added to Node.

Website load testing services determine how websites deal with online traffic. Too often, people equate it with performance testing. However, load testing is just a type of website performance testing. Other types of performance testing include endurance testing, volume testing, scalability testing, spike testing, and stress testing.

Want to look at how data has changed over time? Simply enable history mode, a Fivetran feature that data analysts can turn on for specific tables to analyze historical data.

We launched history mode for Salesforce in May and have been delighted with the response.

This is largely due to its super friendly syntax and its applicability for just about any purpose.
Learning a new language is always a joyous event. From the first innocent google search, through the first “hello world”, to always being surprised when the classic text is somehow printed to the screen/command line console/browser tab/local text file. The entire time your mind is quickly soaking in new ideas and concepts, new syntax and phrases, and new ways of doing things. Some of them can be compared to the languages you already know. Others are brand new.
