The SIMPLICITY of ACHIEVING HIGH-END PERFORMANCE at a LOW COST

Tags:
storage management

Overview It probably has never been more straightforward to set up SAS Intelligence Storage to achieve high-end performance at such a low cost as using the combination of hardware and software explained in this paper. This paper discusses the test results of SAS Scalable Performance Data Server (one component of SAS Intelligence Storage) on a Sun Solaris 10x64 Sun Fire X4500 server and the configurations that were used. The findings of the test can be applied easily to any engine or server being used as a component of SAS Intelligence Storage.
