These configurations can offer significant performance and cost advantages over a traditional RISC/Unix environment. HP Proliant servers delivered the first Linux TPC-C benchmark results running Oracle9i RAC on Red Hat Linux Advanced Server (this product has since been renamed to Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS1). In that benchmark, an 8-node, 32- processor cluster of DL580 servers achieved 138,362.03 transactions per minute (tpmC) at a cost of ...
