k8s-storage-provider-benchmarks VS warp

Thank you for this! I also use ansible to manage my nodes (very old here)so this is going right in the playbook.

k0s is fantastic -- I used it recently in some storage provider testing (Code is on GitHub, includes ansible code that sets up k0s v1.12.0 on Ubuntu 20.04).

Definitely bookmarked that repo though, cool to see other peoples' setups -- my setup is not open source but I open source parts of it when I make repos to go with blogposts, thanks for the link.

Feel free to email me or file issues directly on the repo, I've already added a few for performance tuning ideas after talking to the folks at OpenEBS.

You can watch the action happen in realtime on the GitLab repo.

Once you have the setup, you can benchmark with https://github.com/minio/nperf and https://github.com/minio/dperf and if you really want to stress test you can use https://github.com/minio/warp. If those numbers are acceptable for your use case, you can move forward assuming you have some ability to predict / prepare for traffic patterns to ramp up in the future.

MinIO provides several built in tools for this via mc support diag {disk,object,net}. These tests are server specific. To test more thoroughly you can use https://github.com/minio/warp, but you will need sufficient client machines to push the traffic.

If you have enough client machines to test, you can look at https://github.com/minio/warp but it is more for heavier testing for larger prod deployments. There is a nice utilty within the mc client itself, mc support perf will show you throughput and iops of the cluster.

Agreed, can't beat not leaving your machine :). I'll make a note to get some Object gateway tests in -- what did you use for your s3 benchmarking? Did you just script it or use a tool like warp? I'd like to get as close to replicating your set up so I can compare numbers.
