IBM surpasses 10 Million Transactions per Minute Mark
IBM has introduced an IBM POWER7-based system with IBM DB2 database software and IBM System Storage which topped the 10 million transactions per minute mark using the industry standard TPC performance benchmark. IBM achieved the industry's highest-ever TPC-C (transaction processing) benchmarks result using a Power Systems configuration with DB2, hitting 10,366,254 tpmC.
Nitin Singhal, Country Manager - Information Management, Software Group, IBM India/South Asia, said, "The results of this benchmark demonstrate how IBM innovations combine to deliver unprecedented performance and cost efficiency for data-intensive applications. Not only can you scale to massive data volumes and transaction throughput, but you can do economically in an energy-efficient way."
This TPC-C benchmark with DB2 9.7 was done with a cluster of three IBM Power 780 servers, each with 8 processors, 64 cores, and 256 threads achieving a throughput of 10,366,254 tpmC at $1.38/tpmC with availability date of October 13, 2010.
