HammerDB uses stored procedures to achieve maximum throughput when benchmarking your database. However, there can be a lack of understanding of the benefits that stored procedures bring or if you have a benchmarking tool or database that doesn’t support stored procedures, then you have nothing to compare against.

Web developers or administrators did not have to worry or even consider the complexity of distributed systems of today. Do you have a database? Great, your system was ready to be deployed. Once the system was deployed, to ensure everything was running smoothly, it only took a couple of simple checks to verify.

Python is a popular programming language, especially for beginners, and consequently we see it occurring in places where it just shouldn’t be used, such as database benchmarking. We use stored procedures because, as the introductory post shows, using single SQL statements turns our database benchmark into a network test).
