Performance evaluation of Openstack Swift.

Abstract

This study addresses the need for a comprehensive evaluation of Swift's performance in OpenStack environments. Despite its widespread adoption, there is a lack of in depth analysis in this area. Through testing, including load and stress tests, we examined Swift's behavior across varying levels of demand. Our findings highlight key trends: as user load increased, response times showed a corresponding rise, reaching a maximum observed increase. Moreover, the variability in response times also expanded with higher user loads, emphasizing the importance of scalability and performance optimization for Swift in practical deployment scenarios.
