TPC-E is Official! - new OLTP benchmark from TPC, yeah
Friday Feb 23, 2007
TPC-E is official. I just saw this on www.tpc.org, fantastic! This is great news! Now maybe we can get past the 14-year old simplistic TPC-C benchmark. If you've been following this blog for the last 6-7 blog entries I've been complaining about IBM and how they over-optimised for TPC-C. TPC-C is way past its prime -- now hopefully TPC-E will pick up the slack and provide realistic database performance comparisons.
Details seem to be at http://www.tpc.org/tpce/default.asp
