Recommended way to evaluate the performance of a topology when upgrading code/prerequisites?

[Alexandre Vermeerbergen <av...@gmail.com>]

Hello,

Is there some part of Apache Storm, or related tools/best practices to help
developers evaluating the performance impact of changing their code /
upgrading prerequisites (including moving to a newer Storm release)?

Somehow related question: does Apache Storm comes with it own performance
tests (we know that it come with unit tests) ?

Best regards,

1-       I tend to run my topology on a local cluster at a smaller scale with 1 or 2 workers and see how it performs (using the metrics show in the UI) and keep iterating .. then try on a bigger more realistic scale.

2-       Take a look at the storm-perf module (https://github.com/apache/storm/tree/1.1.x-branch/examples/storm-perf)
