Abstract
Described herein is a system and method for testing a computing device, such as a server, to minimize network impact. A computing device that is new or needs to be evaluated, such as an edge server, in a content delivery network may be determined and a sibling edge server which shares a common characteristic with the edge server may be selected. Requests received on the sibling edge server may be collected and filtered to determine a subset of the requests. The subset of the requests are transmitted to the edge server for processing and evaluation.
