    Keysight Cloud Peak

     Info
    Keysight Cloud Peak is a cloud infrastructure performance benchmarking tool which runs workloads in Virtual Machines or Docker Containers and measures Compute / Network / Storage performance. It can compare infrastructure providers, identify configuration issues, and assess performance bottlenecks.

    Overview

    Keysight Cloud Peak is a test solution designed to benchmark the performance of various cloud infrastructures across the Compute / Network / Storage dimensions. It includes multiple test methodologies which can measure key performance indicators useful for comparing different infrastructure providers, identifying potential configuration issues, and assessing the performance bottlenecks.

    The benchmarks are executed by deploying one or more Cloud Peak Workload instances onto the cloud infrastructure under test. These instances can be packaged as Virtual Machines or as Docker Containers and include tools for generating application load and collecting statistics.

    Ensure your applications are running on the best cloud infrastructure regardless of what type of cloud (Private / Public / Hybrid / Telco / Edge / Others) is utilized by benchmarking the cloud performance with Keysight Cloud Peak.

    Highlights

    • Benchmark cloud infrastructure performance across Compute / Network / Storage dimensions. Measure many key performance indicators such as CPU Speed, Memory Bandwidth, Network Latency, Network Loss, Network Throughput, Storage Bandwidth, or Storage IOPS.
    • Compare various cloud deployment models and select the best platform for hosting each application. Understand the performance differences between various Public, Private, Hybrid, Telco, and Edge Clouds and how these differences impact the application behavior.
    • Choose the best instance type which offers the optimal cost / performance ratio depending on the application requirements. Analyze the effect of various configuration changes and determine which settings result in having peak cloud performance.

    Amazon Machine Image (AMI)

    An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.

    Additional details

    Usage instructions

    1. Launch one Keysight Cloud Peak instance using the Cloud Formation Template.
    2. Login via Web UI at https://<Cloud-Peak-Instance-IP> and apply the BYOL license.
    3. Select test methodology and choose between Automatic Deployment (step #4.1) or Manual Deployment (step #4.2). 4.1 Launch one (or more) Keysight Cloud Peak Workload instance(s) automatically via Cloud Peak AWS API. 4.2 Launch one (or more) Keysight Cloud Peak Workload instance(s) manually via AWS Console.
    4. Perform test execution and analyze results at https://<Cloud-Peak-Instance-IP>:3000.
