Today´s providers rely mostly on in-memory databases for this kind of information processing. A flexible and modular benchmark suite specifically designed for this domain provides a valuable framework to test the performance of different DB candidates. Besides a data and a load generator, the suite also includes decoupled database connectors and use case components for convenient customization and extension. Such easily produced test results can be used as guidance for choosing a subset of candidates for further tuning/testing and finally evaluating the database most suited to the chosen use cases. This is why our benchmark suite can be of value for choosing databases for RTC use cases.
