Oracle Fusion Middleware Sets World Record for Single Node Performance

Oracle today announced that Oracle® Application Server 10g Release 3, a component of Oracle Fusion Middleware, together with Oracle Database 11g running on an HP BladeSystem server blade and an HP StorageWorks 1000 Modular Smart Array (MSA1000),(1) set the world record single node result with the Java Application Server Performance Benchmark.

 

This achievement continues to build on Oracle's commitment of delivering the highest performing, most scalable and reliable Java Application Server to its customers.


Oracle Application Server 10g Release 3, together with Oracle Database 11g, achieved 2,056.27 SPECJAppServer2004 JOPS@Standard (jAppServer Operations Per Second). The Java Application Server was running on an HP ProLiant BL460c server blade, equipped with two Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® X5460 3.16 GHz processors and an HP StorageWorks MSA1000. The database server was running on an HP ProLiant BL480c server blade, equipped with two Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® E5440 2.83 GHz processors.

 

"Benchmark after benchmark, Oracle Application Server continues to deliver world record performance," said Juan Loaiza, Oracle senior vice president, Systems Technology. "This winning track record is further proof that Oracle Application Server clearly sets the standard for performance and scalability in the industry and with its superior features, delivers a comprehensive, affordable and manageable application deployment, business integration and portal environment."

 

Over the past five years, Oracle has submitted record-setting application server benchmarks on a broad range of hardware and software platforms. Oracle is the performance and price/performance leader in multiple SPECjAppServer 2001(2) and SPECjAppServer2002(3) benchmark categories and also holds the world records for best performance and price/performance in the ECperf(4) benchmark of J2EE application servers.

 

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.
