Hi @Thennarasu_Subramani,

Rally should work fine in your case. Please checkout the documentation at [http://esrally.readthedocs.io/en/stable/](http://esrally.readthedocs.io/en/stable/) which helps you to install Rally and get started.

Hi @Thennarasu_Subramani,

it depends on what you want to do but I can just repeat what I've said before: ES 1.5 and 2.4.5 should work fine.

The Rally docs are very elaborate. Please check there first and I am happy to help out with specific questions. If you are in a hurry then start with [http://esrally.readthedocs.io/en/latest/quickstart.html](http://esrally.readthedocs.io/en/latest/quickstart.html).

Hi @Thennarasu_Subramani,

I am always happy about concrete ideas and suggestions about improving the getting started experience. Can you explain what was so time-consuming? After the installation, Rally auto-detects / auto-configures as much as it can so the basic configuration should be done within a minute.

_Usually_ configuration needs to be done just once; after that you just run benchmarks. As you're running on EC2, obviously you need to do the setup routine every time you create a new instance but you can (and should) automate that part anyway.

Hi @Thennarasu_Subramani,

I am not familiar with the term "matrix" in the context here but I think you are calling a benchmarking scenario a "matrix" (never heard of that term...).

Based on that I assumption you want to create something that is called a "track" in Rally (i.e. a benchmarking scenario). In the docs you will find:

- A [tutorial how to create your own tracks](http://esrally.readthedocs.io/en/latest/adding_tracks.html)
- The [track reference](http://esrally.readthedocs.io/en/latest/track.html)
