Edge computing is the next Internet frontier that will leverage computing resources located near users, sensors, and data stores for delivering more responsive services. Thus, it is envisioned that a large-scale, geographically dispersed and resource-rich distributed system will emerge and become the backbone of the future Internet. However, given the loosely coupled nature of these complex systems, their operational conditions are expected to significantly change over time. In this context, the performance of these systems will need to be captured rapidly, referred to as benchmarking, for application deployment, resource orchestration, and adaptive decision-making. Edge benchmarking is a nascent research avenue that has started gaining momentum over the last five years. This article firstly examines articles published over the last three decades to trace the history of benchmarking from tightly coupled to loosely coupled systems. Then it systematically classifies research to identify the system under test, techniques analyzed, quality metrics, and benchmark runtime in edge benchmarking.
