An Enterprise Database Performance Comparison of the Dell PowerEdge 2950 and the Sun Fire V490 UltraSPARC Server
Overview Computer processor vendors continue to bring out higher performing processors. The latest generation from vendors such as Intel and Sun feature two processor cores in a single chip. To test the performance of latest generation dual core servers from Dell and Sun, a performance test using the open source and freely available Dell DVD store database was conducted. A two node Dell PowerEdge 2950 cluster was compared to a similarly configured Sun Fire V490 server. The large (100 GB) version of the DVD store database was built with a leading enterprise database server and was configured with similar settings on both systems.
