- This new two-processor Unicode world record relies on the latest version of SAP software to deliver these breakthrough results. It highlights the optimal performance of SAP ERP applications on Oracle’s Intel Xeon-based Sun Fire servers running the latest version of Oracle Solaris 10 and the seamless multilingual support available for systems running SAP applications.
- Unicode enables seamless multilingual support when running various SAP applications and requires a different version of the software. Sun pioneered the usage of Unicode-based SAP software in several benchmark publications to date and gained significant expertise in lowering the additional resource consumption normally associated with Unicode software.
- The Sun Fire X4270 server delivers the best ERP performance at the departmental server level. Powered by a pair of Intel newest Xeon X5570 processors and running Oracle Solaris, this new benchmark result beats HP DL 360 G5 and HP DL 460c blade results by 12%.
