JMeter setup

Because JMeter will be easier to understand with the GUI, we are going to reuse the "QGIS Windows" EC2 instance from Chapter 5, Creating a Geospatial Database Using PostGIS and PostgreSQL, in the QGIS section.

We repeat the steps from Chapter 5 as follows:

1. Choose the Amazon Machine Image (AMI) from Chapter 5:

Microsoft Windows Server 2019 Base – ami-04ca2d0801450d495 
This AMI can be seen at the top of Figure 5.10 in Chapter 5.

2. The EC2 instance was shown in Figure 5.11 in Chapter 5.
3. Please open the "QGIS Windows" EC2 instance with Remote Desktop Connection as shown in Figure 5.12 in Chapter 5, Creating a Geospatial Database Using PostGIS and PostgreSQL.
4. Download and install the newest JMeter version here:

5. Let's save the JMeter ZIP file into a folder of EC2 such as C:\JMeter\. We then can extract the ZIP file into the folder C:\JMeter...
