Proxy load generator in distributed systems acts as an intermediary that creates and directs load towards target services or components of the system. Its task is to simulate real traffic or requests from multiple clients to test the system's performance, stability, and scalability.

Main functions of the proxy load generator:

  • Centralized management of load and its parameters.
  • Scaling of load through distribution of requests via the proxy.
  • Collection of metrics and monitoring of system response under load.

For example, in testing a web service, the proxy load generator can receive requests from multiple virtual users and redirect them to the service, controlling the intensity and nature of the load.
