Overview

IoTDB-benchmark is a tool for benchmarking IoTDB against other databases and time series solutions.

Databases currently supported:

  • IoTDB
  • InfluxDB
  • KairosDB
  • TimescaleDB
  • OpenTSDB

Main Features

IoTDB-benchmark's features are as following:

  1. Easy to use. IoTDB-benchmark is a tool combined multiple testing functions so users do not need to switch different tools.
  2. Various data ingestion and testing mode: Load existing data from file; Generate periodical time series data, etc.
  3. Supporting storing testing information and results for further query or analysis.
  4. Integration with Tableau to visualize the test result.

Prerequisites

To use IoTDB-benchmark, you need to have:

  1. Java 8
  2. Maven
  3. Apache IoTDB >= v0.8.0 (https://github.com/apache/incubator-iotdb)
  4. InfluxDB >= 1.3.7
  5. other database system under test
  6. sysstat (If you want to record system information of DB-server during test)

Build

You can build IoTDB-benchmark using Maven:

mvn clean package -Dmaven.test.skip=true

This will compile all versions of IoTDB and other database benchmark. if you want to compile a specific database, go to the package and run above command.

After, for example, you can go to /iotdb-benchmark/iotdb-0.11/target/iotdb-0.11-0.0.1 to run benchmark script. The default 'VERSION' is '0.11.0'. If you want to run a database of other version, go to the /iotdb-benchmark/{database-name}/target/{database-name} and don't forget to change VERSION in config.properties to which you want to test.

Quick Start

This short guide will walk you through the basic process of using IoTDB-benchmark.

Data Ingestion Test

Configure

Before starting any new test case, you need to config the configuration files config.properties first which is in iotdb-benchmark/conf. For your convenience, we have already set the default config for the following demonstration.

Suppose you are going to test data ingestion performance of IoTDB. You have installed IoTDB dependencies and launched a IoTDB server with default settings. The IP of the server is 127.0.0.1. Suppose the workload parameters are:

+--------------------------+------------+--------------+-------------+------------+-------------------+------+
| Measurement/StorageGroup | tag/device | field/sensor | concurrency | batch size | point interval(s) | loop |
+--------------------------+------------+--------------+-------------+------------+-------------------+------+
|            20            |    20      |      300     |     20      |      1     |         5         | 1000 |
+--------------------------+------------+--------------+-------------+------------+-------------------+------+

edit the corresponding parameters in the conf/config.properties file as following:

HOST=127.0.0.1
PORT=6667
DB_SWITCH=IoTDB011
BENCHMARK_WORK_MODE=testWithDefaultPath
OPERATION_PROPORTION=2:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0
GROUP_NUMBER=20
DEVICE_NUMBER=20
SENSOR_NUMBER=300
CLIENT_NUMBER=20
BATCH_SIZE=1
POINT_STEP=5000
LOOP=1000

Currently, we have multiple ingestion modes for IoTDB v0.9.x. Specifically, jdbc mode(ingestion using jdbc) and session mode(ingestion using session). You can specify it in the following parameter of the conf/config.properties file.

INSERT_MODE=session

NOTE: Other irrelevant parameters are omitted. You can just set as default. We will cover them later in other cases.

Start (Without Server System Information Recording)

Running the startup script, currently we only support Unix/OS X system:

> ./benchmark.sh

Execute

Now after launching the test, you will see testing information rolling like following:

···
2019-10-15 19:36:36,405 INFO  cn.edu.tsinghua.iotdb.benchmark.client.BaseClient:48 - pool-1-thread-2 89.00% syntheticWorkload is done.

···

When test is done, the last output of the test information will be like following:

The output contains overall information of the test including:

  • Main configurations
  • Total elapse time during the test
  • Time cost of schema creation
  • okOperation: successfully executed request/SQL number for different operations
  • okPoint: successfully ingested data point number or successfully returned query result point number
  • failOperation: the request/SQL number failed to execute for different operations
  • failPoint: the data point number failed to ingest (for query operations currently this field is always zero)
  • throughput: equals to okPoint / Test elapsed time
  • The latency statistics of different operations in millisecond
  • SLOWEST_THREAD is the max accumulative operation time-cost among the client threads

All these information will be logged in iotdb-benchmark/logs directory on client server.

Till now, we have already complete the writing test case without server information recording. For more advanced usage of IoTDB-benchmark, please follow the Other Case instruction.

Other Cases

Query Test

Configure

Edit the corresponding parameters in the conf/config.properties file as following:

### Main Data Ingestion and Query Shared Parameters
HOST=127.0.0.1
PORT=6667
DB_SWITCH=IoTDB
BENCHMARK_WORK_MODE=testWithDefaultPath
OPERATION_PROPORTION=0:1:2:1:1:1:1:1:1
GROUP_NUMBER=20
DEVICE_NUMBER=20
SENSOR_NUMBER=300
CLIENT_NUMBER=20
BATCH_SIZE=1
POINT_STEP=5000
# the operation number executed by each client thread
LOOP=1000

### Main Query Related Parameters
# the number of sensor involved in each query request or SQL 
QUERY_SENSOR_NUM=1
# the number of device involved in each query request or SQL 
QUERY_DEVICE_NUM=1
# the aggregation function for aggregate query
QUERY_AGGREGATE_FUN=count
# the variation step of time range query condition for different operation epoch
STEP_SIZE=1
# the time range interval of time range query condition
QUERY_INTERVAL=250000
# the aggregation granularity of group-by (down-sampling) query
TIME_UNIT=20000

NOTE:

Usually the query test is performed after the data ingestion test. Of course you can add ingestion operation at the same time by setting OPERATION_PROPORTION=INGEST:1:2:1:1:1:1:1:1 as long as INGEST is not zero, since the parameter OPERATION_PROPORTION is to control the proportion of different operations including ingestion and query operations.

Start (Without Server System Information Recording)

Running the startup script:

> ./benchmark.sh

Execute

Now after launching the test, you will see testing information rolling like following:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note:

When okOperation is smaller than 1000 or 100, the quantiles P99 and P999 may even bigger than MAX because we use the T-Digest Algorithm which uses interpolation in that scenario.

Test IoTDB With Server System Information Recording

Configure

If you are using IoTDB-benchmark for the first time, you neet to config testing related environment in startup scripts 'cli-benchmark'. Suppose your IoTDB server IP is 192.168.130.9 and your test client server which installed IoTDB-benchmark has authorized ssh access to the IoTDB server. Current version of information recording is dependent on iostat. Please make sure iostat is installed in IoTDB server.

Configure 'config.properties' Suppose you are using the same parameters as in Quick Start case. The new parameters you should add are INTERVAL and DB_DATA_PATH like:

INTERVAL=0
DB_DATA_PATH=/home/liurui

INTERVAL=0 means the server information recording with the minimal interval 2 seconds. If you set INTERVAL=n then the interval will be n+2 seconds since the recording process require least 2 seconds. You may want to set the INTERVAL longer when conducting long testing. DB_DATA_PATH is the directory where to touch the file 'log_stop_flag' to stop the recording process. Therefore it has to be accessible by IoTDB-benchmark. It is also the data directory of IoTDB.

Configure 'cli-benchmark.sh'

IOTDB_HOME=/home/liurui/github/iotdb/iotdb/bin
REMOTE_BENCHMARK_HOME=/home/liurui/github/iotdb-benchmark
HOST_NAME=liurui
  • IOTDB_HOME: The bin directory where you installed IoTDB on DB-server.
  • REMOTE_BENCHMARK_HOME: The directory where you installed IoTDB-benchmark on DB-server.
  • HOST_NAME: The host name of DB-server.

Start (With Server System Information Recording)

After configuring the first-time test environment, you can just launch the test by startup script:

> ./cli-benchmark.sh

The system information will be logged in 'iotdb-benchmark/logs' on DB-server.

Test InfluxDB

If you followed the cases above, this will be very easy.

Configure

Configure 'config.properties' Suppose you are using the same parameters as in Quick Start case. The only parameter you should change is DB_SWITCH and there are two new parameters:

DB_SWITCH=InfluxDB
DB_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8086
DB_NAME=test

NOTE: The benchmark can automatically initial database(if IS_DELETE_DATA=true), then there is no need for executing SQL like drop database test.

Start

After configuring the first-time test environment, you can just launch the test by startup script:

> ./benchmark.sh

Then one test process is on going.

Perform Multiple Tests Automatically

Usually a single test is meaningless unless it is compared with other test results. Therefore we provide a interface to execute multiple tests by one launch.

Configure

Configure 'routine' Each line of this file should be the parameters each test process will change(otherwise it becomes replication test). For example, the 'routine' file is:

LOOP=10 DEVICE_NUMBER=100 TEST
LOOP=20 DEVICE_NUMBER=50 TEST
LOOP=50 DEVICE_NUMBER=20 TEST

Then it will serially execute 3 test process with LOOP parameter are 10, 20 and 50, respectively.

NOTE: You can change multiple parameters in each test with format like 'LOOP=20 DEVICE_NUMBER=10 TEST', unnecessary space is not allowed. The key word 'TEST' means a new test begins. If you change different parameters, the changed parameters will remain in next tests.

Start

After configuring the file 'routine', you can launch the multi-test task by startup script:

> ./rep-benchmark.sh

Then the test information will show in terminal.

NOTE: If you close the terminal or lose connection to client machine, the test process will terminate. It is the same to any other cases if the output is transmit to terminal.

Using this interface usually takes a long time, you may want to execute the test process as daemon. In this way, you can just launch the test task as daemon by startup script:

> ./dae-benchmark.sh

In this case, if you want to know what is going on, you can check the log information by command as following:

> cd ./logs
> tail -f log_info.log

Test Data Persistence

IoTDB-benchmark can automatically store test information into database for further analysis.

To enable MySQL Integration, please configure config.properties:

TEST_DATA_PERSISTENCE=MySQL
TEST_DATA_STORE_IP=166.111.7.145
TEST_DATA_STORE_PORT=3306
TEST_DATA_STORE_DB=test
TEST_DATA_STORE_USER=root
TEST_DATA_STORE_PW=root

If you do not want to store test data, set TEST_DATA_PERSISTENCE=None.
