Quick Start

This section describes how to run YCSB on Aerospike.

1. Start Aerospike

2. Install Java and Maven

3. Set Up YCSB

Git clone YCSB and compile:

git clone http://github.com/brianfrankcooper/YCSB.git
cd YCSB
mvn -pl com.yahoo.ycsb:aerospike-binding -am clean package

4. Provide Aerospike Connection Parameters

The following connection parameters are available.

• as.namespace - The namespace to be used for the benchmark (default: ycsb)

Add them to the workload or set them with the shell command, as in:

./bin/ycsb load aerospike -s -P workloads/workloada -p as.timeout=5000 >outputLoad.txt

5. Load Data and Run Tests

Load the data:

./bin/ycsb load aerospike -s -P workloads/workloada >outputLoad.txt

Run the workload test:

./bin/ycsb run aerospike -s -P workloads/workloada >outputRun.txt
