DuPont Projects Moving to Intel Architecture-Based Systems Would Provide an 8x Improvement in Price/Performance
Overview In 2005, DuPont CR&D's Information & Computing Technologies initiated a project to understand and standardize database deployments. Improved price/performance and standardization were the goals when DuPont Central Research & Development (CR&D) chose Intel Solution Services to help validate a proposed move from RISC servers to Intel architecture-based servers as the new company computing standard. DuPont and the Intel consultants demonstrated performance advantages as well as a migration process from the UNIX operating system to the Linux operating system, creating a reusable, scalable, and cost-effective standard platform for the company's research and business communities.
