Mock client service registering requests in a process queue

usage

1. Clone the repo
2. cd into the root directory and run docker compose up --build

register request

To register a user request click on the button. You will get a notification specifying which worker will process your request

simulate load

To simulate a larger server load you can run an apache benchmark bash script from the terminal. cd into the server directory and run:

Example: ab -p post_loc.txt -T application/json -c 50 -n 500 http://localhost:5000/

This will send 500 post requests (50 concurrent) to the server.

monitor queues

To monitor the queue load visit http://localhost:5000/monitor

Each worker will also log the result in the terminal

adjust the configuration

To adjust the configuration you can edit the config.js file in the root directory.

You can specify

NUMBER OF WORKERS - by default this is set to the number of cpus on the current machine

MIN_DELAY - minimum simulated delay on processing each task

MAX_DELAY - maximum simulated delay on processing each task

QUEUE_SIZE - size limit on each queue, by default set to 1000
