A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 8238 Title: Data Center Benchmarking Terminology Author: L. Avramov, J. Rapp Status: Informational Stream: IETF Date: August 2017 Mailbox: lucien.avramov@gmail.com, jhrapp@gmail.com Pages: 20 Characters: 39128 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-bmwg-dcbench-terminology-19.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc8238 DOI: 10.17487/RFC8238 The purposes of this informational document are to establish definitions and describe measurement techniques for data center benchmarking, as well as to introduce new terminology applicable to performance evaluations of data center network equipment. This document establishes the important concepts for benchmarking network switches and routers in the data center and is a prerequisite for the test methodology document (RFC 8239). Many of these terms and methods may be applicable to network equipment beyond the scope of this document as the technologies originally applied in the data center are deployed elsewhere. This document is a product of the Benchmarking Methodology Working Group of the IETF. INFORMATIONAL: This memo provides information for the Internet community.
