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. Benchmarking the target Two of the more popular database benchmarks for MySQL are HammerDB and sysbench. For storage, FIO is generally used. 4.22 %usr 38.40

The use case is the TPC-C benchmark but executed not on a high-end server but on a lower-spec virtual machine that is I/O limited like for example, with AWS EBS volumes. I decided to use a virtual machine with two CPU cores, four GB of memory, and storage limited to a maximum of 1000 IOPs of 16KB. TPC-C on MyRocks.

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. However, it is crucial that the benchmarking application does not have inherent bottlenecks that artificially limits the scalability of the database. Basic Benchmarking Concepts. To benchmark a database we introduce the concept of a Virtual User.

In this example, we will use the CLI to run TPROC-C on a MariaDB database to illustrate the concepts. So as a first step, we will go ahead and set keying and thinking time for one virtual user and run the test for 2 minutes of rampup and 2 minutes of testing time. Again, each virtual user we add is running at approximately 1 NOPM.
