Is their any industry standard for performing 300K load test (thermostat->HVAC system)?

See more:

We need to perform 300K Thermostat load test. all 300K thermostats was connected to different 300K IPs via WIFI connection.

Client machines: AWS EC2 instances/Azure load testing service.
Server machine: Here we can observe the Azure VMSS metrics like CPU,Memory and so on....

is their any industry standard for performing this requirement?

What I have tried:

We used AWS EC2 instances for doing this requirement.

Each AWS EC2 Instance we are running 8000 Thermostats.Single AWS EC2 (IP) we are connected 8000 Thermostats (Thats not exact reliastic).

We need to use 300K AWS EC2 instances for performing this load test? (or) ony other easy way to achieve this requirement (azure load test) and so on?

The standard way of doing this is to actually scale the problem down. In other words, you don't test 300K devices; instead, you would look at running your load test on a statiscally relevant subset of your devices (say 1000). Once you have completed your tests, you extrapolate the results back to the full set. You really don't want to try and spin up 300K EC2 instances.
