In this section, we share the results of synthetic testing performed on Dell EMC Integrated System for Microsoft Azure Stack HCI running four AX-7525 nodes. We used VMFleet, as many Microsoft customers and partners rely on this tool to help them stress-test their hyperconverged infrastructures. VMFleet consists of a set of PowerShell scripts that deploy VMs to a Hyper-V cluster and execute Microsoft’s DISKSPD within those VMs to generate I/O. DISKSPD is very helpful for creating synthetic workloads to test an application’s resource utilization before deployment.
