4.3 Performance Benchmarking with 60K MPS SEPP Traffic with HTTP2 Feed Replication

The performance benchmarking test is performed on OCNADD with SEPP HTTP2 feed (replication enabled) in a centralized deployment with one worker group. The traffic includes 60K MPS SEPP traffic (15K TPS with 4 traffic copy trigger points on SEPP). The benchmarking results are provided below:

Note:

One Ingress message from a NF is "1" MPS for OCNADD.

Benchmark Test Environment

The test environment specifications are listed below:
  • Ingress Traffic Rate: 60K MPS
  • The latency, resource utilization, and MPS is observed for the period of 3 hrs or more.
  • OCNADD single site deployment with ASM disabled
  • OCNADD Release 23.4.0 deployed over CNE (Bare metal) 22.3.0 version
  • Kafka Replication Factor (RF): 1
  • OCNADD Data Feed: HTTP2/TLS
  • OCNADD Kafka PVC: 400GB

    For more information about PVC requirements, see Kafka PVC Storage Requirements.

  • 3rd Party Application: With 2 End-points
  • cnDBTier Release 23.4.0
  • SEPP Release 23.4.0
  • SASL/SSL, enabled between SEPP and OCNADD
  • CNCC Release 23.4.0
  • Message Size: 3300 bytes
  • Environment: CNE (Bare metal)
  • Execution time: 12 Hours
  • cSEPP: PLMN IGW and N32 EGW messageCopy feature enabled
  • pSEPP: The messageCopy feature is disabled

Benchmark Testcase Specifications

The testcase parameters are as follows:
  • OCNADD
    • A feed is configured using the OCNADD Console with aggregation rules set for SCP, NRF and SEPP.
    • Message Ingestion Rate: 60K MPS
