Benchmark Factory® for Databases

Product Highlights

Features

Platform Support

Supports a wide range of database platforms including Oracle, SQL Server, IBM DB2, SAP, MySQL, and Postgres. Also supports additional platforms via ODBC connectivity.
 

Industry-standard benchmark testing

Evaluate database scalability, test hardware/configurations and determine system throughput. Simulate real database application workloads using out-of-the-box, industry-standard benchmarks (TPC-H, TPC-C, TPC-D, TPC-E, ASP3AP and scalable hardware).

Database workload generation

Understand future performance problems and do what-if analyses using actual transaction workloads. Simulate real-world production loads by taking production or synthetic activity, and replaying it in test or development environments.

Virtual user and transaction load simulation

Quantify application or server performance, determine system throughput and find database breaking points by propagating user and transaction workloads on the system under test. Each user and transaction acts as a separate, independent thread with its own connection and statistics, including run times and transactions per second.

Run Reports

Benchmark Factory Run Reports is a separate component used to view the detailed test results in a report format. Open Run Reports from the Benchmark Factory console or from the Start menu.

Repository

Use the vast amount and variety of statistics in Benchmark Factory’s library to measure, analyze, and predict the capacity of a system. Benchmark factory collects and stores overall server throughput (measured in transactions per second, bytes transferred, etc.) and detailed transaction statistics by individual workstation producing a load.
 

Database code scalability testing

Evaluate how applications perform when deployed with real activity. Perform load tests on SQL scripts, PL/SQL, T-SQL code and stored procedures under different concurrent user configurations. Fix any code performance issues found before production deployment by integrating with SQL Optimizer.
