Novell and IBM Deliver Outstanding Performance on Critical Business Intelligence Test
- IBM OpenPower Systems Combine with Novell’s SUSE(R) LINUX Enterprise Server and DB2 Universal Database to Set World Records on TPC-H Performance Benchmark
- First TPC benchmark with IBM Linux on POWER5 processors proves industry-strength and performance of SUSE(R) LINUX Enterprise Server’s 2.6 Linux kernel
WALTHAM, Mass. — Dec. 16, 2004 — Novell today announced outstanding performance results on a benchmark using Novell SUSE® LINUX Enterprise Server 9 and IBM POWER5â„¢ processor-based hardware. The industry standard TPC-H benchmark tests were designed to test a system’s ability to handle complex business intelligence processing for clients. One IBM/Novell configuration achieved the world record for the best non-clustered result in the TPC-H 100GB benchmark test.1 Another IBM/Novell configuration in the TPC-H 300GB benchmark test demonstrated the ability to handle larger databases with clustering the same basic building blocks.
The world record was achieved with a Linux® based system configuration comparable to real-world client installations. One test included SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 and IBM DB2® Universal Database™ v8.2 on the IBM eServer™ OpenPower ™ 720, which performs at $42.00 per QphH@100GB and is now the highest performing system in the non-clustered 100GB database group with a Composite Query-per-Hour metric of 6,357 QphH@100GB.
