Abstract:
Database benchmarks have been used for decades to load test systems and to compare systems or system configurations with each other. However, their methods and assumptions are hardly suitable for multi-tenant cloud database services. Those systems have to provide both performance isolation of a lot of tenants with dynamic workloads and cloud computing features like scalability, elasticity, and reliability. In this article, the open source benchmark framework MuTeBench is presented. It allows the creation of OLTP benchmarks for multi-tenant databases and combines extensibility, portability, and evolved workload support of the underlying OLTP-Bench with flexible scheduling, statistic gathering across tenants, and individual service level agreements.
