Mend.io Scalability

Jeffrey Harker - PeerSpot reviewer
System Manager of Cloud Engineering at Common Spirit

With the exception of license capacity, which arguably is a point of negotiation, it's scalable. It's very scalable performance-wise. I don't know how many lines of code we had when we started, however, we easily have three times the code in this division than we had when we put this in place. I haven't had a meaningful amount of slow down even given all that increase in capacity.

The scalability is fairly good. Our usage increased dramatically from 3,000 reports to almost 60,000 reports, and we haven't had any issues.

It is a pretty scalable product.

The application security team uses it. That’s four people using it regularly.

We are using everything that it does. Mend does a lot of things. It does SAST, SCA, it does DAST as well. We are using just the SCA module of it, which we need, and we are using the SCA model to its fullest. I hope we're doing the most efficient deployment of it.

It's very scalable, because we are not doing a lot of scanning every day, maybe 200 per day, and we don't have any issues with the scan performance.

We have three departments using the solution. One team is using GitHub, another team is using Gitlab, and the third team uses Bitbucket and we have integration with these three Git providers. We are running pipelines in Jenkins, Codefresh, and GitLab CI/CD, and we scan the code in all three environments. We have people in France, the UK, the US, and Singapore, a total of 250 users.

WhiteSource's scalability is extremely good. We can add more repositories, projects, and people as we need. There's no problem with the scalability. We did not find any slowness, performance stress, or load-related issues when we did the trials. WhiteSource can handle up to a few thousand concurrent users without any issues.

Once we have the solution fully licensed we will have approximately 50 people using it.

Ou usage of WhiteSource will increase as we add more people, but it's going to be the same code base. The number of users will increase, but the scope of the solution usage in terms of the number of solutions will remain the same.

Once, we had a very large codebase that took very long to scan, so much so that it climbed out completely. In addition, we have a codebase that we can't scan effectively as it's either too large or there are some subtle mishaps around it. This is an ongoing investigation with the WhiteSource team.

That ticket has been around for quite a while due to the combination of us being a bit slow and the problem being complex. The problem is still not close to being fixed. 

We have forty contributing developers. They do not necessarily interact with the product every day, however, that's the licensing we have, and they are a mixture of internal teams and third-party contractors.

It is a SaaS solution, so scalability is something that their teams need to handle on their side. Scalability is in their control, and we are just sending those results over there.

We have about 450 users. We only use the portal. We scan via a unified agent or a CLI component, and we have two extra components. We have the Chrome plug-in and the IDE plug-in. The best thing is that on the CI/CD pipeline that we are using, we only need to call a unified agent that does the scan and then posts the results on the dashboard or the portal. It is deployed at multiple locations and at multiple levels of our pipeline. We are using Gitlab Cloud, Bitbucket and Jenkins. We are using many different tools at different locations.

The solution is scalable, and scalability is vital for such an integral piece of software. Software development scenarios can change fast, requiring support for new languages and apps, so we constantly learn and communicate with Mend to fulfil our fluid requirements and adapt to changes within our environment.

This is a SaaS offering that has so far taken everything we have thrown at it (150+ products, with multiple projects in each). Certain reports that aggregate data globally could take a while to churn, but well within acceptable time-frames.

We haven't deployed it on a massive scale so we may not be able to judge the scalability. We run through perhaps ten deployments in a day, and we have not seen any issues.

We use this for anything that gets deployed, which is every pipeline that we run through our CICD.

It is a preferequisite that the solution is scalable, as it is SaaS-based.

Head of Department for Software Engineering and Integration

We have only six software projects included right now. Altogether, we have several hundred third-party open source components. With this amount of objects displayed in the dashboards, it is working pretty well. I cannot say anything which goes beyond that amount. 

From time-to-time, I have the impression that if it is a long list (e.g., if I have several hundreds of entries in a list), that this list might somehow get a little bit difficult to handle with the scroll bar in finding things. This could be improved, in regards to handling a lot of data. It seems a little bit limited.

We started off slowly with WhiteSource and never experienced any issues around this topic.

That said, I’m not sure if it plays a part in the UI issues.
