k6 vs JMeter — which for a modern perf pipeline?

k6 is production-ready for HTTP, WebSocket, gRPC, and browser (via xk6-browser). For a JS team it will feel native — thresholds, scenarios, and native Prometheus/Grafana output are excellent. Keep JMeter around only if you rely on plugins that do not exist in k6 (e.g. JMS, SAP protocols). Otherwise, migrate.
