Apache Spark TPC-DS

This is a benchmark of Apache Spark using the TPC-DS data-set. Apache Spark is an open-source unified analytics engine for large-scale data processing and dealing with big data. This test profile benchmarks the Apache Spark in a single-system configuration and leverages the https://github.com/databricks/tpcds-kit and https://github.com/IBM/spark-tpc-ds-performance-test/ projects for testing.

To run this test with the Phoronix Test Suite, the basic command is: phoronix-test-suite benchmark spark-tpcds.

Use with caution this test profile is currently marked Experimental.

Performance Metrics

Analyze Test Configuration:

Apache Spark TPC-DS 3.5

Scale Factor: 10 - Q66

OpenBenchmarking.org metrics for this test profile configuration based on 64 public results since 3 January 2024 with the latest data as of 14 April 2024.

Below is an overview of the generalized performance for components where there is sufficient statistically significant data based upon user-uploaded results. It is important to keep in mind particularly in the Linux/open-source space there can be vastly different OS configurations, with this overview intended to offer just general guidance as to the performance expectations.

Based on OpenBenchmarking.org data, the selected test / test configuration (Apache Spark TPC-DS 3.5 - Scale Factor: 10 - Q66) has an average run-time of 1 hour, 57 minutes. By default this test profile is set to run at least 3 times but may increase if the standard deviation exceeds pre-defined defaults or other calculations deem additional runs necessary for greater statistical accuracy of the result.

Based on public OpenBenchmarking.org results, the selected test / test configuration has an average standard deviation of 2.2%.
