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.

As database performance is heavily influenced by the performance of storage, network, memory, and processors, we must understand the upper limit of these key components. For storage, FIO is generally used. Benchmarking the target Two of the more popular database benchmarks for MySQL are HammerDB and sysbench. 0.42 %sys 9.52

A monitoring tool like Percona Monitoring and Management (PMM) is a popular choice among open source options for effectively monitoring MySQL performance. They include backup success rate, backup duration, recovery time objective (RTO), recovery point objective (RPO), and backup storage utilization.

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.”

” Here are additional metrics used to determine the reliability of a database, make adjustments that minimize downtime, and set benchmarks for meeting business continuity requirements. The transparency of open code enhances security as potential vulnerabilities can be identified and patched more quickly by the community.

After the “data dictionary” (DD) engine and DD cache are initialized on a server, the Storage Engines can ask for a table definition. Initializing a DD engine and the cache adds complexity and other server dependencies. XtraBackup does not simply behave like a server to access a table object.

It can help us to save costs on storage and backup times. While MySQL can handle large data sets, it is always recommended to keep only the used data in the databases, as this will make data access more efficient, and also will help to save costs on storage and backups. 1 mysql mysql 704M Dec 30 02:28 employees.ibd -rw-r --.

PostgreSQL is an open source object-relational database system that has soared in popularity over the past 30 years from its active, loyal, and growing community. For the 2nd year in a row, PostgreSQL has kept the title of #1 fastest growing database in the world according to the DBMS of the Year report by the experts at DB-Engines.

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 In MySQL, considering the standard storage engine, InnoDB , the data cache is called Buffer Pool. In PostgreSQL, it is called shared buffers.

From an engineering perspective this may be all that you need to know. Additionally both commercial and open source tools based on the specifications also continued to use TPC-C and TPC-H to describe these workloads. However a reasonable follow-on question is then why change the name at all? But why is this important?
