NoSQLBench is a performance testing tool for the NoSQL ecosystem.
NoSQLBench is a performance testing tool for the NoSQL ecosystem. It brings together features and capabilities that are not found in any other tool.
- You can run common testing workloads directly from the command line.
- You can generate virtual data sets of arbitrary size, with deterministic data and statistically shaped values.
- You can design custom workloads that emulate your application.
- Immediately plot your results in a docker and grafana stack on Linux with a single command line option.
- When needed, open the access panels and rewire the runtime behavior of NoSQLBench to do advanced testing, including a full scripting environment with Javascript.
The core machinery of NoSQLBench has been built with attention to detail. It has been battle tested within DataStax as a way to help users validate their data models, baseline system performance, and qualify system designs for scale.
In short, NoSQLBench wishes to be a programmable power tool for performance testing. However, it is somewhat generic. It doesn't know directly about a particular type of system, or protocol. It simply provides a suitable machine harness in which to put your drivers and testing logic. If you know how to build a client for a particular kind of system, it will let you load it like a plugin and control it dynamically.
