Cloud Injector Families

Cloud injectors are provisioned in a cloud environment to run Eggplant Performance injector software. These injectors are typically created only as the test begins; therefore, the IP address will likely be different each time the specific injector is called.

Cloud injectors are housed in Eggplant Performance Studio within cloud injector families. The injector family provides the configuration settings for multiple similar injectors. Cloud injector families are found in the workspace tree in Studio under Injector Families.

When you create a new injector family in the Create an Injector Family wizard, you choose whether the family is for static or cloud injectors. After the injector family is created, you can't change the type (although you can always create new injector families and delete existing ones).

Prerequisites for Cloud Injector Families

Before you're able to create a cloud injector family, you have to meet the basic prerequisites:

Stored Credentials: You have to save your access credentials for the hosted provider you intend to use (i.e., if you're using Amazon EC2, you need stored credentials for an EC2 account; if you're using Microsoft Azure, you need stored credentials for an Azure account). For more information about stored credentials, go to Stored Credentials.
Virtual Machine Images: You need to have an image name or ID for at least one virtual instance on the hosted provider you intend to use (i.e., an AMI ID for EC2 or an Azure image name for Microsoft Azure). For more information about Virtual Machine Images, go to Virtual Machine Images.

If either of these pieces of information is missing, the Create an Injector Family wizard won't allow you to continue to create a cloud injector family.
