TPC-H@3TB result for the M9000 [24044]
Latest World Record Showcases Superior Performance to HP and IBM
The superior scalability of Oracle Database 11g Release 2 running on Oracles SPARC Enterprise M9000 server was proven as the configuration established a new world record non-clustered TPC-H 3TB benchmark result, delivering nearly twice the performance of the previous best score, also an Oracle record. Running on a SPARC Enterprise M9000 server, equipped with 64 SPARC64 VII+ 3.0 GHz processors, and Sun Storage 6180 arrays, Oracle Database 11g Release 2 with Oracle Solaris achieved a world record TPC-H 3 TB non-clustered performance result of 386,478 QphH@3000GB with a price of $19.25/QphH@3000GB, according to Oracle's press release. This result is 2.4 times faster than the IBM Power 595 system; the entire database loaded 3.3 times faster than the IBM Power 595 while maintaining the highest level of data protection at a lower cost per transaction. Neither IBM nor HP matched this level of performance in the 3TB scale factor category using a single system, Oracle's release concludes, which further highlights the performance capabilities of multi-processor SPARC systems in the most demanding enterprise application environments.
