Summary\r\n\r\nThis PR adds changes and instructions how to run existing
performance\r\njourneys against ESS instances.\r\n\r\nAs previously
discussed with @pheyos , there are few manual steps to be\r\ndone before
running the actual journey:\r\n1. Create cloud deployment and
re-configure it the way APM traces are\r\nreported the monitoring
cluster\r\n2. Check out the branch matching deployment version (main
->\r\n8.9.0-SNAPSHOT), create user with `superuser` role (we don't
test\r\nfunctional features, only performance metrics)\r\n\r\nThen you
can run the journey like a regular cloud test suite:\r\n```\r\nexport
