Considering the existing metrics and forecasted 300% growth, the appropriate load testing targets for the new B2C Commerce site would be:
* 15000 visits per hour: This figure is calculated by applying the expected growth to the peak visits per hour (1000 visits), resulting in 4000 visits. The choice of 15000 provides a higher buffer to accommodate unforeseen spikes in traffic.
* 300000 page views per hour: Similarly, this is scaled up from the peak page views per hour (20000) considering the growth, ensuring the site can handle high demand and interactions.
* 3750 orders per hour: This target is based on the peak orders per hour (250) with the growth applied, allowing testing of the system's ability to handle transactions under significant load.
These targets ensure that the system is robust enough to handle increased traffic and transactions without performance degradation, crucial for maintaining customer satisfaction and operational stability.
