This repository houses the steps to mimic the experimental setup used for application benchmarking and microbenchmarking various deployment platforms and the VM placement algorithm that leverages PromLib library.
The folder hierarchy is as follows
root
├── Microbenchmarking scripts (Scripts for performing microbenchmarks)
│ ├── cpu (To benchmark the CPU using sysbench)
│ ├── disk (To benchmark the disk using iozone)
│ ├── memory (To benchmark the memory using stream)
│ └── network (To benchmark the network using netperf)
├── binaries (Necessary binary packages for setting up the DC)
└── documentation (Detailed setup instructions for erecting the DC)
├── common (Deployment of the monitoring server)
├── Application Benchmarking
└── Microbenchmarking (Setting up the hypervisors and configuring the VMs)
- Steps mentioned in
documentation/commonis for setting up the centralised monitoring server and hence, is the same for both application and micro benchmarks. documentation/Microbenchmarkingfolder has instructions for setting up the individual servers (bare metal, hypervisor and VMs).- The
binariesfolder holds the necessary binary packages (prometheus, exporters, grafana, etc.) with the version that best works with the recommended setup. Microbenchmarking/scriptsholds instructions for running microbenchmarks on a per-resource fashion and has individual README files for detailed execution steps.- Installation guidelines has instructions for setting up the Solver in the above environment, which will then generate placement recommendations on the fly
