SPEC Cloud IaaS 2018 benchmark uses I/O- and CPU-intensive workloads to test provisioning and runtime aspects of cloud implementations
The Standard Performance Evaluation Corp. (SPEC) has released SPEC Cloud IaaS 2018, new benchmark software that measures the performance of infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) cloud implementations.
The SPEC Cloud IaaS 2018 benchmark measures replicated application instances, overall performance, relative scalability, and mean instance provisioning time of IaaS cloud implementations, both public and private. It replaces the 2016 version, which will be retired in three months.
