HammerDB is a software application for database benchmarking. It enables the user to measure database performance and make comparative judgements about database hardware and software. Databases are highly sophisticated software, and to design and run a fair benchmark workload is a complex undertaking.

To make data count and to ensure cloud computing is unabated, companies and organizations must have highly available databases. A basic high availability database system provides failover (preferably automatic) from a primary database node to redundant nodes within a cluster. HA is sometimes confused with “fault tolerance.”

Some opinions claim that “Benchmarks are meaningless”, “benchmarks are irrelevant” or “benchmarks are nothing like your real applications” However for others “Benchmarks matter,” as they “account for the processing architecture and speed, memory, storage subsystems and the database engine.”

HammerDB is a load testing and benchmarking application for relational databases. All the databases that HammerDB tests implement a form of MVCC (multi-version concurrency control). On high-performance multi-core systems all the supported databases can return performance in the many millions of transactions per minute.

Estimates vary, but most reports put the average cost of unplanned database downtime at approximately $300,000 to $500,000 per hour, or $5,000 to $8,000 per minute. With so much at stake, database high availability and fault tolerance have become must-have items, but many companies just aren’t certain which one they must have.

HammerDB doesn’t publish competitive database benchmarks, instead we always encourage people to be better informed by running their own. So now lets see what we get in performance mode, an almost 32% improvement (and 53% higher than the published benchmarks). ./bin/pgbench

To illustrate this, I ran the Sysbench-TPCC synthetic benchmark against two different GCP instances running a freshly installed Percona Server for MySQL version 8.0.31 That’s a heritage of the LAMP model when the same server would host both the database and the web server.

The reason for these changes is that over time for some databases more advanced features or drivers have been introduced that improve performance since the time that the original HammerDB transactions or interfaces were written.

Apple Corporate is at fault, not Open Source engineers or the line managers who support them. As an engineer on a browser team, I'm privy to the blow-by-blow of various performance projects, benchmark fire drills, and the ways performance marketing (deeply) impacts engineering priorities. So is speedy resolution and agreement.
