Environments

This directory contains the code for the Environments used in the mlos_bench benchmarking automation framework.

Each Environment has several stages that it goes through:

• setup
• run
• teardown

Which are implemented using Services.

Environments also have Tunables and TunableGroups for controlling their configuration.

Environments can also be stackable via the CompositeEnvironment class.

For instance, a VM, OS, and Application Environment can be stacked together to form a full benchmarking environment, each with their own tunables.

It is generally expected that all Tunables within an Environment will have the same cost to change. Thus one may represent a system by multiple Environments (e.g. BootTimeEnvironment, RuntimeEnvironment, etc.)
