The testing methodology consists of two strategies:
The objective is to stress the entire system with multiple workloads. Hence both compute and storage workloads were configured and run simultaneously.
The AI use case consists of a semantic search using structured crypto financial data and unstructured crypto tweet data demonstrating correlations between tweets, volatility, and price.
To generate the storage workload, the nano and fio benchmark tools are run and then the bandwidth and IOPS on the PowerFlex system were measured.
