Oracle recently announced that Oracle Application
Server 10g Release 3, a component of Oracle Fusion Middleware,
together with Oracle Database and Oracle Real Application Clusters,
running on HP Integrity server blades and HP StorageWorks Enterprise
Virtual Arrays, delivered world record clustered performance results
with the SPECjAppServer2004 Benchmark.[1] Reaching the highest
performance ever achieved running a clustered database, this result
surpassed the best SPECjAppServer2004 benchmark results from BEA
WebLogic[2] by 15 percent and IBM WebSphere with IBM DB2 UDB 9.1[3]
by more than 116 percent.
Oracle Application Server 10g
Release 3 together with Oracle Database and Oracle Real Application
Clusters achieved 9,459.19 SPECJAppServer2004 JOPS@Standard (jAppServer
Operations Per Second). The Java Application Servers were
running on 11 HP Integrity BL860c server blades, with the latest two
dual-core Intel Itanium 1.66 GHz processors running in the HP
BladeSystem c-Class c7000 enclosure. The database server was
running on two HP Integrity Superdome servers each with 40 dual-core
Intel Itanium 1.6 GHz processors and an HP StorageWorks EVA8100.
Both the application server and database tiers were running
HP-UX 11i v3. This result adds to Oracle and HP's existing
world record performance results with the SPECjAppServer2004
benchmark in the Single Node[4] and Multi Node[5] categories.
"Capturing the top
SPECJAppServer2004 results is a clear demonstration of Oracle
Application Server's superior performance running on HP Integrity
servers and HP BladeSystem blades," said Juan Loaiza, Oracle
senior vice president, Systems Technology. "This
SPECjAppServer2004 result is the first to also use Oracle Real
Application Clusters and demonstrates its ability to transparently
enhance performance and scalability across a wide range of
applications or workloads."
SPECjAppServer2004 is a
multi-tier benchmark for measuring the performance of a
representative J2EE application and each of the components that make
up the application environment, including hardware, application
server software, JVM software, database software, JDBC drivers and
the system network .
