Sun achieves record results
SANTA CLARA, CALIF. October 15, 2008 Sun Microsystems, Inc. (NASDAQ: JAVA) today announced five new world record results on industry-standard benchmarks using x64 servers based on Intel Xeon and AMD Opteron architectures, powered by the Solaris Operating System (OS) and Linux. Sun is setting the bar by posting the first-ever submissions on two new benchmarks from the Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation (SPEC) – SPECjvm2008 and SPECmail2008, as well as record-breaking results on SPECfp2006, ABAQUS and Fluent application benchmarks for High Performance Computing (HPC) environments. Sun also debuted a new benchmark web site designed to offer a gateway for customers to access more than 350 industry-leading and world-record results, pertinent blogs, customer success stories and other technical information in a single location. More information is available at: http://www.sun.com/benchmarks/.
Well done to Sun in achieving these results using its x64 servers running Linux and Solaris. Optimizing the operating system for the platform is key to improving your system performance, whether it’s selecting the right components, deploying the correct firmware/driver pack and configuring the right options in the operating systems, all can make the difference between getting high performance from your server and the acceptable performance.
