Key metrics like throughput, request latency, and memory utilization are essential for assessing Redis health, with tools like the MONITOR command and Redis-benchmark for latency and throughput analysis and MEMORY USAGE/STATS commands for evaluating memory. It depends upon your application workload and its business logic.

HammerDB is a load testing and benchmarking application for relational databases. On high-performance multi-core systems all the supported databases can return performance in the many millions of transactions per minute. Basic Benchmarking Concepts. To benchmark a database we introduce the concept of a Virtual User.
