HammerDB is a software application for database benchmarking. Databases are highly sophisticated software, and to design and run a fair benchmark workload is a complex undertaking. The Transaction Processing Performance Council (TPC) was founded to bring standards to database benchmarking, and the history of the TPC can be found here.

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). This post explains why HammerDB made the language decisions it made to make it the best performing and most usable database benchmarking software.

Regardless of whether the computing platform to be evaluated is on-prem, containerized, virtualized, or in the cloud, it is crucial to consider several essential factors. Therefore, before we attempt to measure our database performance, we should know the system or cloud instance to be tested in detail. Operating System: Ubuntu 22.04

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.”

In particular, after a running a test it would be ideal to have a repository where we could verify the configuration of the workload that was run, the results and any timing or transaction count data generated to bring all the log output into a central location. This happens for both a schema build and running a test. HammerDB CLI v4.6

HammerDB Variable or Step Workloads are an advanced testing feature that enables you to automatically vary the load on the database over a period of time. When taking this approach you would not focus on the test result but instead monitor the databases ability to cope with the variation in demand and transaction response times.
