A Very Specific Benchmark: Files vs MySQL vs Memcached vs Redis vs MongoDB

About:

This sort of very specific benchmarks are valid/interesting if and only if:

  • they simulate extremely close the real life scenario that will be supported by the final application
  • they are not generalized to compare the overall performance of the NoSQL stores
  • the NoSQL store is correctly configured to fulfill the app requirements (f.e. durability)
  • it is understood that the driver has an impact on the results

In this case the benchmark measured requests/s for a usecase of session storage for a Tornado-based web app. You can see the results below:


Reference MySQL Memcached MongoDB Redis
1626 req/s 1353 req/s 1473 req/s 1582 req/s 1418 req/s

Note: The benchmark doesn’t provide enough details about the drivers used.
