HornetQ Test

About

This repository contains a program to measure the performance and scalability of HornetQ. The program is written entirely in Java. HornetQ is an open-source project to build a multi-protocol, embeddable, very high performance, clustered, asynchronous messaging system.

Setup

In a new terminal window, download the HornetQ binaries and install the packages by running:

./setup.sh

Execution

In the same terminal window, start the HornetQ standalone server by running:

cd bin
./run.sh

In a new terminal window, start the consumer by running:

mvn -DskipTests -Pconsumer package

In a new terminal window, start the producer by running:

mvn -DskipTests -Pproducer package

Configuration

The server address, server port, number of messages and message size can be configured by modifying lines 52-59 and 94-99 in the pom.xml file respectively.

Testbed

Each compute cluster is an identical configuration of the following components:

• 1x Supermicro SSG-6047R-E1R36L Large compute node consisting of:
  • 2x Intel E5-2630v2 CPU
  • 256GB RAM
  • 14x 2TB 7200RPM SAS2 hard drives (LSI HBA-connected)
  • 1x Intel S3700 400GB SATA3 SSD
  • 1x Intel P3700 400GB PCIe NVMe solid-state storage device
  • 4x Intel i350 gigabit Ethernet ports
  • 1x Mellanox 40GbE QSFP port
• 2x Supermicro SYS-6017R-TDF compute nodes. Each consisting of:
  • 2x Intel E5-2620v2 CPU
  • 64 GB RAM
  • 3x 1TB SATA3 hard drives
  • 1x Intel S3700 200GB SATA3 SSD
  • 2x Intel i350 gigabit Ethernet ports
  • 1x Mellanox 10GbE SFP port
• 1x Mellanox SX1012 10/40 GbE 12-port cluster switch

To Dos

• Single producer/consumer on a single node with 1 million messages, 4kB each
