Method and system for testing cloud based applications and services in a production environment using segregated backend systems

摘要

An application is implemented in the production environment in which the application will be used. Two or more backend systems are provided. Actual user data is received. The actual user data is routed and processed in the production environment using a first backend system of the two or more backend systems. Fabricated user data is generated, routed, and also processed in the production environment but using a second backend system of the two or more backend systems. Results data from the processing of the fabricated user data is then analyzed to evaluate the production environment and/or operation of the application in the production environment.
