PerformanceEvaluation

The PerformanceEvaluation utility allows you to run several preconfigured tests on your cluster and reports its performance. To run the PerformanceEvaluation tool, use the command:

bin/hbase pe

In older HDP versions, use the command:

bin/hbase org.apache.hadoop.hbase.PerformanceEvaluation

For usage instructions, run the command with no arguments.

LoadTestTool

The LoadTestTool utility load-tests your cluster by performing writes, updates, or reads on it. To run the LoadTestTool use the command:

bin/hbase ltt

In older HDP versions, use the command:

<strong>bin/hbase org.apache.hadoop.hbase.util.LoadTestTool</strong>

To print general usage information, use the -h option.

Alternative to LTT is YCSB
