(IBM DS 8.1) Stress Test 2: Flat to MySQL (RELOAD)


The Second stress test involves, Transfer 6 millions of records from a Flat File, to a table in MySQL. Version 2


In the previous versions, the time obtained was '47 minutes'. With the new architecture, and modifying the Array Size, the time dropped to less than 10 minutes.

Times:

Architecture:

-Environment: Infraestructure composed of 3 nodes

- 1)ESXi 5.0:

1.a) Physical Datastore 1:VM ETLClover (12GB RAM - 2 Cores * 2 Sockets)

1.b) Physical Datastore 2:VM Database ServerMySQL/Oracle (4GB RAM - 2 Cores * 2 Sockets)

-2)Monitor Performance: VM Monitor ESXi + SQL Server 2008 (with 4 GB RAM)

-3)Operator ETL: ESXi Client (with 3 GB RAM)

CASE 1: Array SIZE 100.000 Rows

Objective:

-To measure elapsed time reading and writing 6 million rows, from Flat file, to .CSV file.

-Compare performances in the 2 environments.

-Analyze use of the resources
