With object storage systems being increasingly recognized as a preferred way to expose one's storage infrastructure to the web, the past few years have witnessed an explosion in the acceptance of these systems. Unfortunately, the proliferation of available solutions and the complexity of each individual one, coupled with a lack of dedicated workload, makes it very challenging for one to evaluate and tune the performance of different systems. To help address this problem, we present the Cloud Object Storage Benchmark (COSBench). It is a benchmark tool that we have developed at Intel with the goal of facilitating both performance comparison and system optimization of these systems. In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of this tool, focusing on its extensibility and scalability. In addition, we discuss how people can use this tool to perform system characterization and how the latter can facilitate system comparison and optimization. To demonstrate the value of our tool, we report the results of our experiments conducted on two Swift setups we built in our lab. We also share some of our experiences in turning our setups to achieve higher performance.
