Integrations & plugins
Artillery has 20+ integrations for metrics and observability systems, CICD, and more. It also has an API to write your own extensions.
Cloud-native
Artillery is designed for cloud. There's no load testing infra to setup or manage. Run tests on top of AWS Lambda and AWS Fargate with ease.
Your own VPC
Artillery runs in your own AWS account and plugs into existing security & compliance mechanisms. Test public endpoints and internal services for full coverage.

We use Artillery to run weekly load tests in production. This gives us the confidence to know our online publications can handle large spikes in traffic without incident or customer impact, as well as identifying any potential problems or bottlenecks ahead of time in a controlled manner. Artillery has been an invaluable tool for the SRE team as we continuously look to improve our platform's reliability and resiliency.
