UltraSPARC T2: Web, App, & Database

Wednesday Apr 09, 2008

Last Wednesday (in my last posting), I showed benchmarks that showed that an UltraSPARC T2 demonstrated great performance in Web, Application, and Database tiers. So it was quite surprising when someone commented "but I can't understand on which market it is great ? "

Wow, no convincing some people. A single chip UltraSPARC T2 can beat 4-socket Quad-cores and do it at less hardware cost when reasonably configured with memory. A single-chip UltraSPARC T2 can out perform super-expensive 4-core IBM power6 (2-chip).

Maybe Sun will just have to raise the bar...

...off to do more work now, then more blogging later this morning.

Hello,

I was just surfing around the SAP benchmark sites. I saw that there were only a few Sun benchmarks (Only 2 at the S&D module) while your competitors have published hundreds of benchmarks for SAP. Why is that?
