<![CDATA[Cloud computing assures to deliver reliable services through advanced data centers built on virtualized compute and storage technologies. Users demanding more cloud services will be able to access applications and data from a Cloud anywhere in the world in a pay-as-you-go model. In this paper, we focus on cloud-based performance testing for the applications. We use Load Storm testing tool to configure and test plans to measure the performance of web applications in online social networks. The experimental observations designed to assess the performance fluctuations of social networks on maximum consumer demand days have given specific data pointers which could be utilized for further studies of web service enhancements.]]>
