Patent attributes
Technologies are described for facilitating data workload capture, workload replay, and comparing the performance of a plurality of database systems. A plurality of requests for database operations are received from one or more database clients. The requests for database operations are executed. For the plurality of requests for database operations, execution context information is generated for a plurality of execution contexts. For the plurality of requests for database operations, a plurality of performance measures are generated. The execution context information and the performance measures are stored in a workload capture store, such as a file. The workload capture file is useable to replay the captured workload at a second database system using at least a portion of the execution context information and at least a portion of the performance measures.
