##Step by step
- Download the latest release of YCSB:
git clone https://github.com/aerospike/ycsb
cd ycsb-
Set up a database and client hosts to benchmark. There is a README file under each binding directory.
You must have SSH (and in most cases root) access to all your hosts.
-
Configure YCSB build script to build database binders Edit pom.xml, uncomment modules related to databases which you chose in
<modules>section -
Configure hosts, databases and workloads settings: Edit files: conf/hosts.py, conf/databases.py, conf/workloads.py
-
Build and deploy YCSB to client hosts
fab ycsb_deploy- Load data to databases
fab ycsb_load:db=<dbname><dbname> is aerospike, couchbase, couchbase2, cassandra,
mongodb or any other you configured
Edit conf/workloads.py to confiture workloads root directory
- Run YCSB workload
fab ycsb_run:db=<dbname>,workload=A- Check the YCSB status
fab ycsb_status:db=<dbname>- Download YCSB results and logs
fab ycsb_get:db=<dbname>,do=TrueYou'll get some .out and .err files in the current directory downloaded from all your clients.
- Aggregate the YCSB results
./bin/merge.pyThis script gets the most important parameters from YCSB .out files, such as throughput and latency, aggregates the results from multiple clients and prints the result as tab-separated values which can be easy pasted into any spreadsheet.
