Sysbench AWS Lambda

A containerized AWS Lambda function that runs CPU benchmarks using sysbench.

Files

  • Dockerfile - Container definition with sysbench installation
  • lambda_function.py - Lambda handler that runs sysbench
  • test_event.json - Sample test event

Local Testing

1. Build the Docker image

docker build -t sysbench-lambda .
docker build -t sysbench-lambda-cpu . -f Dockerfile-cpu

2. Run locally with Lambda Runtime Interface Emulator

docker run -p 9000:8080 sysbench-lambda-cpu

3. Test with curl

In another terminal, invoke the function:

# Basic test
curl -XPOST "http://localhost:9000/2015-03-31/functions/function/invocations" \
  -d '{}'

# Custom parameters
curl -XPOST "http://localhost:9000/2015-03-31/functions/function/invocations" \
  -d '{"threads": 2, "time": 5, "max_prime": 20000}'

Event Parameters

All parameters are optional:

  • threads: Number of threads to use (default: 1)
  • time: Test duration in seconds (default: 10)
  • max_prime: Maximum prime number to calculate (default: 64000)

export ACCOUNT_ID=foo REGION=us-west-1 PLATFORM=amd64 TEST=cpu
./update_func.sh
