Leading OEM Supplier Upgrades to the Latest Release of EnterpriseOne/GENISYS Testing for Enhanced Efficiency
Challenge
Faced with the challenge of an existing custom-developed eCommerce Site interfacing with an outdated JD Edwards release using a Java API, the organization needed to address modifications made to the JDE App Server call method. This situation, coupled with anticipated higher customer user loads, necessitated thorough testing before production. Acting as the JD Edwards business partner, IT Convergence recommended its load, stress, and regression tool to test and validate the solution. This involved setting parameters within the eCommerce application to control calls to the JDE App Server, ensuring it remained efficient under varying conditions.
Solution
IT Convergence's comprehensive solution involved leveraging the GENISYS testing tool to determine the optimal parameters for throttling calls to the JDE App Server. This proactive approach ensured that the server would not be overburdened, maintaining smooth operations. Subsequently, during an upgrade to the latest release of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne and related infrastructure changes, ITC adapted and modified scripts to align with the upgrade's requirements. Rigorous testing reaffirmed the system's capacity to handle simultaneous calls from the eCommerce site, covering multiple components such as the eCommerce Tool, the JDE App Server, SQL Server, and eCommerce Server.
Results
Through the strategic partnership with IT Convergence, the organization successfully addressed and overcame its challenges. Utilizing the testing tool, they confirmed the ability to control calls to the JDE App Server, preventing overload issues. Subsequent testing during the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne upgrade validated the system's capability to manage simultaneous calls, ensuring the efficiency of the entire ecosystem. This collaborative effort ensured a seamless transition, emphasizing the resilience of the organization's digital infrastructure.
