Further demonstrating extreme performance, Oracle WebLogic Server and Oracle Database running virtualized on a single Oracle SPARC T5-8 server have achieved a new world record result with the SPECjEnterprise2010 benchmark beating IBM-s Power7+ benchmark result also running on a single virtualized server.
Today, Oracle announced that , a part of , and the #1 application server across cloud and conventional environments, outperformed the competition to achieve a new world record in a virtualized environment with the industry-standard SPECjEnterprise2010 benchmark.
The record breaking result was achieved with and running on Oracle-s server with virtualized with . The configuration delivered the overall highest virtualized result with 36,571.36 SPECjEnterprise2010 EjOPS (1), delivering 3.3 times more performance than IBM-s comparable 8-chip benchmark result (2).
Oracle-s solution consisted of Oracle WebLogic Server 12c and Oracle Database 12c running on a single SPARC T5-8 server.
Both Oracle WebLogic Server and Oracle Database were virtualized with Oracle VM Server for SPARC. Both tiers communicated over physical network interfaces. Data files were distributed across 24 of Oracle-s F40 Flash Arrays.
SPECjEnterprise2010 is a Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE)-based industry standard benchmark, which tests an end-to-end technology infrastructure that includes server hardware, Java Virtual Machine (JVM), database, operating system, storage and network subsystems.
For the past decade, Oracle has consistently produced record-setting Java application server benchmarks across a broad range of hardware architectures and operating systems. For more information on Oracle-s leading results, visit: .
