Overview

This page is created to investigate Aurora serverless performance by comparing it with configured database for DB xlarge instance type. Data Import (DI) on oasl-pvt cluster with Check-in Check-out (CICO) script running as background. 

Summary

  • The environment can handle the load with all compared DB instance types. 
  • Serverless v2 (32 - 128 ACUs) DB instance type configuration performs much better than (0.5 - 128 ACUs) due to increased capacity and its performance closer to 8xlarge. But to cut costs it's better to use (0.5 - 128 ACUs) for DB reader instance role. 
  • Aurora serverless RDS CPU didn't exceed 25% for any file size. Execution time or test duration has tendency to decreasing for bigger file size because of bigger ACUs.
  • A set of tests were carried out in accordance with the conditions described in

    . Comparing tests with database instance type db.r6g.xlarge where RDS CPU utilization was stable but high with max rate of 96% against the database instance type Serverless v2 where RDS CPU utilization didn't exceed 26% in the highest load, yet the test duration decreased for 25k DI job only. Time decreasing happened because of Aurora Capacity Units (ACU) grew during first 10k data import and didn't scale down instantly. So ACUs stayed on the same level for some time and then scaled down to default level without load. 
  • In addition running tests for CICO

    keyPERF-593
    I could observe that xlarge used more DB connections than any of DB instance types. The results mentioned in summary table show better response times over time for runs with 20 users. And no significant changes between different DB instance types. High latency was observed for all tests.
  • To capture additional data from performance insights during DI with 50K file

    serverId01505d01-b853-3c2e-90f1-ee9b165564fc
    keyPERF-602
    three DI operations for different DB instance types were carried out. All snapshots are located in Average Active Sessions table.
  • To check hypothesis that Aurora serverless configuration changes for Deployments and tasks parameter from 2 to 4 in mod-inventory, mod-inventory-storage, mod-circulation, mod-circulation-storage can lead to test duration decreasing additional DI without CICO were carried out. After check no dependencies are found for that amount of tests. It's considered that 5 or more DI operations needed to get relevant data.

Results

The table includes test results from running on different database instance types Here we observe that RDS CPU utilization for db.r6g.xlarge has maximum values and test duration grows proportional to file size.

But after database was switched to Aurora serverless RDS CPU didn't exceed 25% for any file size. Execution time or test duration has tendency to decreasing for bigger file size because of bigger ACUs.

CPU Utilization DI and DI+CICO


8xlargexlargeserverless
RDS

CPU starts with spikes at the beginning of the tests and comes to normal after finish.


Test date: 2023-05-25

For xlarge database instance type CPU was maximum but it didn't affect DI any way. So it ran successfully 

Test date: 2023-05-29

For serverless CPU was stable and was not higher than 25%


Test date: 2023-05-30

Service

Data imports during CICO. The services worked stable and returned to there normal state after tests

CICO background process didn't affect DI and it worked as expected

  • Error rate correlates with DI file size - it grows with bigger files. The lowest error rate was with Serverlessduring 25 DI. All errors are in Check-Out Controller for POST_circulation/check-out-by-barcode (Submit_barcode_checkout)_POST_422.
