Compaq ProLiant achieves 1 Billion TPC-C transactions-per-dayHouston 19 September 2001 A 32-node cluster of Compaq ProLiant DL760 servers has achieved a new world-record performance TPC-C benchmark result of 709,220.08 transactions per minute (tpmC) at a cost of only $14.96 per tpmC.
This result leads the industry for price: performance in the Transaction
Processing Council Top Ten list of clustered TPC-C benchmarks (http://www.tpc.org ).
This benchmark represents the equivalent of processing more than 1 billion
transactions per day, or in real-world terms, more than triple the
transactions handled daily, worldwide, by a large consumer credit card payment
processing system.
The benchmark was achieved on scale-out configuration of 32 ProLiant DL760
servers, each with eight 900MHz Intel Pentium III Xeon processors,
running Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server and Microsoft SQL
Server 2000 Enterprise Edition.
