TPCx-HS v2: Transforming with Technology Changes

摘要

The TPCx-HS Hadoop benchmark has helped drive competition in the Big Data marketplace and has proven to be a successful industry standard benchmark for Hadoop systems. However, the Big Data landscape has rapidly changed since its initial release in 2014. Key technologies have matured, while new ones have risen to prominence in an effort to keep pace with the exponential expansion of datasets. For example, Hadoop has undergone a much-needed upgrade to the way that scheduling, resource management, and execution occur in Hadoop, while Apache Spark has risen to be the de facto standard for inmemory cluster compute for ETL, Machine Learning, and Data Science Work-loads. Moreover, enterprises are increasingly considering cloud infrastructure for Big Data processing. What has not changed since TPCx-HS was first released is the need for a straightforward, industry standard way in which these current technologies and architectures can be evaluated. In this paper, we introduce TPCx-HS v2 that is designed to address these changes in the Big Data technology land-scape and stress both the hardware and software stacks including the execution engine (MapReduce or Spark) and Hadoop Filesystem API compatible layers for both on-premise and cloud deployments.
