Running nighthawk:

• First start the 3 services
  • envoy-gloo-ee: run-envoy-gloo-ee.sh
  • tap server: run-tap-server.sh
  • nighthawk server (upstream): run-nighthawk-server.sh
• Then run the benchmark suite: run-benchmark.sh
• Alternately, you can run the nighthawk client manually for testing by running run-nighthawk-client.sh

  • Example with some additional options to change the request and response body sizes:

    ./run-nighthawk-client.sh
    --request-body-size $((100 * 1024))
    --request-header "x-nighthawk-test-server-config:{response_body_size:1000}"
