# Install a load generator

Load generators are the machines that run Vuser scripts to generate load. To create a load generator, you install the load generator software on a host computer. Load generators can be either Windows-based or Linux-based. You use the Windows-based Controller to control both the Windows-based and the Linux-based Vusers.

To install a load generator on Windows, you use the same installation process as other OpenText Professional Performance Engineering components. For details, see Install components on Windows.

You can install a load generator using the UI-based setup wizard, perform a silent installation, or deploy a load generator using a Docker container. Alternatively, you can provision a load generator in a cloud account. For details, see Load generators on the cloud.
