Oracle® Fusion Middleware Delivers World Record Two-Socket, Single-Node Result with SPECjAppServer2004 Benchmark on Dell PowerEdge Server
Oracle WebLogic Server Delivers Highest JOPS per Core of any Result ever Published
Redwood Shores, CA – March 30, 2009
News Facts
Today Oracle today announced that Oracle® WebLogic Server, a strategic component of Oracle Fusion Middleware, together with Oracle JRockit, Oracle Enterprise Linux and Oracle Database 11g running on a Dell PowerEdge server, set a world record two-socket, single-node result with the SPECjAppServer2004 industry standard benchmark. (1)
Showcasing the superior performance and scalability of Oracle Fusion Middleware, with Oracle WebLogic Server’s advanced application grid capabilities, this benchmark delivered the highest performance per core of any result ever published.
Oracle WebLogic Server 10g Release 3 Standard Edition with Oracle JRockit and Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition, achieved 3,975 SPECjAppServer2004 JOPS@Standard (jAppServer Operations per Second). The Java Application Server was running on a Dell PowerEdge R610 server with a two-socket Intel® Xeon® x5570 quad-core 2.93 GHz processor.
Oracle Database 11g was running on a Dell PowerEdge R900 server with a four-socket Intel Xeon x7460 hex-core 2.66 GHz processor. Both application server and database machines were running Oracle Enterprise Linux.
For more than 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 reported in July 2002.
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.
