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. Conclusion.

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.

Load balancing : Requests are evenly distributed across multiple database servers, ensuring the system remains operational even if one server fails. Automated failover : To keep the database operational and minimize downtime, it automatically switches to a backup server if the primary server fails.
