There are several benchmarking tools in the market but most of them require esoteric coding knowledge. NoSQLBench is simple to use while providing sophisticated benchmarking for Cassandra and other NoSQL databases. It provides results within minutes. By Jones-Gilardi.
In this post, you’ll get hands-on experience with benchmarking and stress testing Cassandra using NoSQLBench. Rather than going in-depth, our tutorial will scratch the surface and cover:
- Understanding parameters and key metrics for benchmarking
- How cycles, bindings and statements work together
- Experimenting with stdout
- Scaling up a test and customizing your own scenarios
- Packaging a performance test with named scenarios
NoSQLBench is an open-source, pluggable testing tool for the NoSQL ecosystem. It’s primarily designed to test Cassandra, but you can also use it for other NoSQL technology like Apache Kafka, MongoDB, and DataStax Astra DB. Good read!
