DUBLIN, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Sybase, Inc. (NYSE:SY), the largest enterprise software and services company exclusively focused on managing and mobilizing information, today announced that Sybase® IQ 15, combined with Sun Microsystems’ Sun Fireâ„¢ X4540 storage server and running the Solarisâ„¢ 10 Operating System (OS), recorded the best price/performance result in the TPC-H benchmark at 3000 GB scale factor for all non-clustered systems1. This benchmark simulates decision support systems that analyze large volumes of data, executes queries with a high degree of complexity, and gives answers to critical business questions. The outcome of this testing further illustrates the effectiveness of Sybase IQ 15 in helping to optimize IT asset utilization and significantly reduce ownership costs.

“Today, enterprises are more than ever searching for ways to give their business decision makers ad-hoc, real-time analytics on large volumes of data while adhering to constrained IT budgets,” said Dan Lahl, director of marketing, Sybase IQ. “This benchmark is proof-positive that the compatibility of these two leading technologies creates an analytics solution which provides the fastest and most affordable method for users to acquire critical business answers from large-scale databases.” 

As with anything, the performance you achieve with the application/platform is dependent on the hardware configuration, the drivers used and operating system configuration/patches as well as the application code and network. Regardless, it’s always interesting to hear what can be achieved and well done to Sun/Sybase for their performance results.
