kbench

Installation

Currently, kbench is available on TestPyPI.

$ pip install --index-url https://test.pypi.org/simple/ --extra-index-url https://pypi.org/simple kbench

Usage

pod-throughput

Launch multiple pods in parallel and measure their startup and cleanup time.

$ kbench pod-throughput

• -n, --num-pods: Number of pods to launch.
• -i, --image: Container image to use.

pod-latency

Launch multiple pods sequentially and measure their startup and cleanup time.

$ kbench pod-latency

• -n, --num-pods: Number of pods to launch.
• -i, --image: Container image to use.

deployment-scaling

Create a deployment and measure scale-in/out latency. First, a deployment with m replicas is created. Then, the deployment is scaled-out to n replicas. Once the scale-out is completed, the deployment is scaled-in to m replicas again.

$ kbench deployment-scaling

• -i, --image: Container image to use.
• -m, --num-init-replicas: Initial number of replicas.
• -n, --num-target-replicas: Target number of replicas.
