ticket on PCP1 environment.

Also in scope is checking how the volume of pictures as well as the images' storage choice, DB or S3 bucket affect loading time,

Summary

Four tests were carried out to compare results with different ways to store pictures in User's profile with 500 pictures in source storage. It was possible to enable/disable functionality, change source storage and maximum possible value of file size on the fly with API config requests.requests
- Profile Picture functionality does not affect Patron Page loading response times and it works even faster (60-140 ms, depends on the flow).
After populating DB and S3 bucket with additional pictures (3 times more datatotal number after populating - 1800 pictures) two tests were carried out to see how it affect Patron Page loading time.
- Volume of pictures in DB or S3 bucket does not affect response times during Patron Page loading.

Recommendations & Jiras

It was difficult to update mod-user correctly during deploying. Please take a look into the process. It may skip profile_picture table creation or create with not correct number of columns for some reason. The functionality has dependency from mod-permission so the module version should correspond to latest with all needed UI permissions for admin user.

Test Runs

These baseline test results on mod-users 19.2.2 version without Profile Picture functionality before deploying the version which support profile picture functionality

Service CPU Utilization

Tests #1, #2, #3

mod-users-b - 89%, mod-configuration-b - 38%

Test #4, #5, #6

During volume testing in tests #5 and #6 mod-users with S3 bucket utilized CPU 10% more than DB (S3 - 93%, DB - 83%).

Service Memory Consumption

mod-users - 68%, mod-inventory - 40%. No some weird behaviour from memory side

RDS CPU Utilization

CPU during volume tests grew from 17% to 30%. The results for RDS CPU utilization are not clear because of every 20 minutes spikes.

RDS Database Connections

Connections were close to 400 during all tests.

Appendix

Errors

For all tests common errors (404/Not Found) were in GET /perms/users/{id} and GET /perms/users/{id}/permissions requests. These errors appear if [tenant]_mod_permissions.permissions_users table has no record with this user UUID in jsonb→>'userId'.

Methodology/Approach

Tests were carried out with jMeter script. 5 thread groups concurrently with 100 loops.

To get config Id and change storage source use API
- GET /users/configurations/entry
- PUT /users/configurations/entry/{configId}
To upload picture to DB use API
- POST /users/profile-picture
To get or to check uploaded profile picture use API where profileId the record in DB [tenant]_mod_users.profile_picture
- GET /users/profile-picture/{profileId}

To connect AWS S3 bucket storage add to task definition of mod-users module and restart it with changes in revision
- { "name": "AWS_URL", "value": "https://s3.amazonaws.com" }
- ```
{ "name": "AWS_BUCKET", "value": "cluster-id-or-any-useful-naming-here" }
```
