Thread: AS3AP Implementation for PostgreSQL/Linux ?

AS3AP Implementation for PostgreSQL/Linux ?

From

Greetings,

    Is anyone aware of a downloadable PostgreSQL/Linux implementation of
the AS3AP database benchmark? I've
searched the web but was not successful. I'd like to run AS3AP but I'm not
interested in having to buy a tool (e.g., Benchmark Factory) for a different
OS.

Thanks!
Bruce

Hi Bruce,

Not that we're aware of.  Great Bridge is actively exploring the possibility of
working with software vendors to make an open source implementation available...
stay tuned.

Regards,
Ned

IIRC, there is a free demo of Benchmark Factory that runs one or the
other of the two benchmarks Great Bridge used.  I forget if it's AS3AP
or TPC, though --- and in any case you need an NT machine to run BF
itself on (ick).  Poke around at http://www.benchmarkfactory.com/.

Correct... in fact, I think the demo runs all the tests.  But its only good for a
handful of users (you buy clumps of concurrent users to test), so you wouldn't be
able to duplicate the entire test.  You'd probably see the same trendlines,
though.
