Creating an ECS Server

Create an ECS by referring to the Elastic Cloud Server User Guide. The following table lists the created flavors.

TPC-DS and TPC-H data sets occupy large space. For example, TPC-DS 1000X and TPC-H 1000X occupy 930 GB and 1100 GB, respectively. Therefore, select a suitable data disk when creating an ECS. Fore example:

Performing TPC-DS or TPC-H test: 2 ultra-high I/O 600 GB data disks
Performing TPC-DS and TPC-H tests: 2 ultra-high I/O 1200 GB data disks
