before reading the conclusions, we recommend to read the previous posts in this series if you want to know more details about the environment and the test scenarios: Introduction, Scenario 1, Scenario 2, Scenario 3. Conclusions It’s time to discuss all the results obtained so far. The table below show the average time expressed in seconds…
We have seen how to setup the benchmarking environment and two simple scenarios (Scenario 1, Scenario 2) in the previous blogposts of this series. This time we are going to add Hadoop to the mix to test a workload with significant memory, CPU and I/O impact. Scenario 3 The image used for this…
We talked about setting up the environment for benchmarking and we have seen in the previous part a simple OpenStack scenario. In this part we are going to continue by adding more complexity to the use case being tested. Scenario 2 In the second scenario a few intermediate steps have been added to increase the…
In the previous part of this OpenStack KVM vs Hyper-V compute benchmarking series we talked about how to setup the testing environment and how to run some scenarios. Time for some results! Scenario 1 To begin with, we started with a basic KVM vs Hyper-V scenario: Ask Nova to boot a VM Wait until Nova…
OpenStack Newton has been recently released. During this cycle we did quite some work on increasing the performance and overall reliability of our Windows and Hyper-V OpenStack compute drivers. This is the first post in a series where we are going to share some of our Hyper-V vs KVM benchmarking results for this OpenStack release, get…
Azure Service Fabric is a distributed systems platform that makes it easy to package, deploy, and manage scalable and reliable microservices. It can be deployed on Azure, but also on-premise, thus making OpenStack a great choice for the latter. We are going to use Juju to deploy our Azure Service Fabric cluster directly on OpenStack…
