New Database Benchmark Hits Enterprise "Sweet Spot"

Overview Network Appliance, IBM, and Microsoft have collaborated on a TPC-C transaction processing benchmark for a 16-way, 64-bit Intel Xeon MP-based computer using Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition (64-bit). The system, priced at a total of U.S.$3.14 million, achieved 492,307 tpmC, with a cost per tpmC of $6.37. This benchmark demonstrates the performance of SQL Server 2005 on NetApp RAID-DP storage systems and IBM's new eServer xSeries 460. In addition, it shows how SQL Server 2005 is able to exploit technology advances from key vendors like Intel, IBM, and Network Appliance to deliver advances in performance and cost efficiency.
