Oracle Database Standard Edition One on Oracle Enterprise Linux Delivers 45% More Performance at 19% Less Cost Than Its Nearest Competitor
With the latest TPC-C benchmark, Oracle Database Standard Edition One and
Oracle Enterprise Linux on an HP ProLiant ML350 have set a new world record for price/performance.
Oracle outperformed the competition by posting the industry's lowest ever transaction cost. The system tested is ideally suited to fast-growing companies.
Achieving 100,926 transactions per minute with a price/performance of $.74/tpmC, Oracle Database 10g Release 2 Standard Edition One
delivered 45 percent more performance at 19 percent less cost than its nearest competitor.
"With this world record price/performance result, along with our world record results for overall highest performance, Oracle has become both
the fastest database and the value leader," says Oracle Senior Vice President Systems Technology, Juan Loaiza. "This accomplishment is
extraordinarily rare. It is the equivalent of having the car with the best value in the world also win the international track racing competitions."
