For performance testing, we also run common benchmarks: the popular YCSB (Yahoo! Cloud Serving Benchmark), NoSQLBench, LinkBench, SysBench, TPC-H, and TPC-C. We also run C Bench, our own Tarantool API benchmark. Its primitive operations are written in C, and scripts are described in Lua.

Most benchmarks of non-relational databases are done with either product-specific tooling (like cassandra-stress), or with YCSB, which gives you a lowest-common-denominator key-value workload across dozens of systems.

What are some alternatives?

When comparing small and YCSB you can also consider the following projects:

luatest - Tarantool test framework written in Lua

nosqlbench - The open source, pluggable, nosql benchmarking suite.

luaunit - LuaUnit is a popular unit-testing framework for Lua, with an interface typical of xUnit libraries (Python unittest, Junit, NUnit, ...). It supports several output formats (Text, TAP, JUnit, ...) to be used directly or work with Continuous Integration platforms (Jenkins, Maven, ...).

tarantool - Get your data in RAM. Get compute close to data. Enjoy the performance.

cbench - Tarantool C Bench - a simple tool to benchmark Tarantool internal API

jepsen.tarantool - Jepsen tests for Tarantool
