Oracle Sets Record TPC-H Performance
By Our Corporate Bureau | 15 Sep 2004
Running on a two-node Dell PowerEdge 6600 server cluster, each with four Intel Xeon 3.0 GHZ processors with the Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS 3.0 operating system, Oracle Database 10g with Real Application Clusters achieved record performance for eight processor systems, of 6,795.5QphH@300GB with a price-performance ratio of $42/QphH@300GB. This record result outperforms the previous best eight processor TPC-H 300 GB result from IBM DB2, delivering four percent more performance at 36 per cent less cost. This result also outperforms the next best eight processor TPC-H 300 GB result from Microsoft SQL server by 67 percent and costs less.
"We've demonstrated again how Oracle Database 10g with Real Application Clusters and standardized systems on Linux deliver world-class performance and scalability for the enterprise," said Richard Sarwal, vice president of Server Performance, Oracle Corp.
This benchmark adds to the extensive list of Oracle Database 10g performance world records, including world record TPC-H benchmarks in the one and three terabyte scale factor categories, and the overall TPC-C world record result of 1.18 million transactions per minute on clustered Linux servers. As the leading database for production data warehousing, Oracle Database 10g provides a single, integrated database engine for scalable and high performing data warehousings implementations.
