The two-tier SAP SD Standard Application Benchmark measures the system performance to process dialog steps and order line item postings per hour for SAP solution-based transactions. A transaction consists of a full business process that captures activities from the full order processing cycle from order creation to delivery to invoicing.

"This record result on the SAP Sales and Distribution Benchmark demonstrates that Linux is enterprise ready and further establishes Oracle's ability to achieve top notch results for customers in today's demanding supply-chain environment," said Richard Sarwal, vice president of Server Performance, Oracle. "Oracle Database running on Linux is one of the most popular platforms and this benchmark result underscores the value we bring to our customers."

In addition to holding the best performance result on Linux for the two-tier SAP SD Standard Application Benchmark, Oracle holds a number of performance world record results on other SAP benchmarks running on Fujitsu and Fujitsu Siemens Computers hardware including: the two-tier SAP Business Information Warehouse (BW) Release 3.5 Standard Application Benchmark(3), the two-tier SAP SD Standard Application Benchmark(4), and the two-tier SAP Assemble-to-Order (ATO) Standard Application Benchmark(5).
