Couchbase Server Benchmark at CouchConf (Slides)
Comparing popular NoSQL databases
On Sep 21, 2012, Renat Khasanshyn, CEO at Altoros, delivered a session “Benchmarking Couchbase Server” at CouchConf held in San Francisco. The event was attended by 400 NoSQL developers and featured presentations by Orbitz, LinkedIn, Tapjoy, IBM, Sabre Holdings, McGraw Hill, and others.
During the session, Renat noted that all NoSQL vendors consider their databases fast and scalable. However, for end users, it is more relevant to learn how a particular database will manage different types of workloads. Altoros dug deeper into the issue and compared three NoSQL systems—MongoDB, Cassandra, and Couchbase Server 2.0—across 21 criteria: performance, scalability, availability, ease of installation, maintenance, etc. The analysis was made using the YCSB framework, and the performance was tested on Amazon virtual machines. The results of the comparison can be seen in the presentation below.
