2008-9-8 9:51:00

Recently, in the international authorized test of TPC-E Server OLTP (online transaction processing) performance test, Inspur Server based on the latest 6-core platform made the latest world record with a result of 702.90tpsE (transactions per second E), to the most powerful 4-route server in the industry. Such an achievement is the first time for China server industry making a world record in the international authorized database test, convincingly proving that Inspur server has possessed the technical capability to undertake high-end industry key application in telecommunication, finance, etc, also marking that China server industry represented by Inspur has entered key commercial application domain in the competition with international manufacturers.

This is another surpassing in the global database performance competition test after Inspur making world record in TPC-H and SPEC tests, and the latest achievement of Inspur for its constant efforts in high-end commercial domains. Wang Endong, the senior vice president of Inspur Group, said in an interview.

The Technical Program Committee (TPC) is the most authorized server performance test organization in the world, called the arena club of world servers. Presently, almost all of world famous IT manufacturers (like IBM, HP, SUN, etc) are members of TPC.

It is understood that TPC-E test is the latest test benchmark launched by the organization in March last year, gradually replace the TPC-C with a history of 14 years. Compared with the last generation of TPC-C test, TPC-E attaches more importance to high-emulation of the model, which simulates the daily business flow of the global largest e-stock exchange-New York Stock Exchange, and the model frame complete the transition from C/S frame to B/S frame, which is a typical OLTP performance test benchmark of Internet era. In addition, the data types are more abundant, expanded from 3 types to 10 types, with more complicated simulated transaction conditions. TPC-E test is presently the only third-party database performance test in the industry, pursued by IT industry from chip manufacturers, OS manufacturers to server manufacturers after being launched, and its test results have been an important reference index of implementing key system deployment by high-end industrial users including finance, telecommunication and stock.

According to the general industrial view, attending the international universal TPC database OLTP performance test has been a symbol of server manufacturers comprehensive strength. In the world, a type test costs USD 2-10 million, but also needs a complete technical team, which organize the all-around work from system construction, optimization, test and application. Moreover, breaking world records requires profound power of server manufacturer in system optimization. Compared with the peak floating-point capability of high-performance server, TPC test is more capable to reflect the capacity of the server platform facing the real commercial environment and key transaction processing.

Actually, TPC-E test is just an epitome of Inspur in persistent progress in high-end commercial server. High-end commercial application has been always the focus of Inspur server focusing on strategy. To realize high-end commercial breakthrough, China server industry need to face international competition, balancing and requiring it with internationalized standards. From attending, keeping pace to surpassing, Inspur Servers has been always ranked the top. It had also broken and established a series of world record in international authorized tests, including TPC-H and SPEC, accomplishing a series of breakthroughs in key application domains from database OLAP (online transaction processing), three-layer frame to database cluster.

According to an internal analyst, the TPC-E world record has fully indicated that domestic server manufacturers represented by Inspur have reached the international level in the solution development and optimizing capability in high-end key domains. It is significant to change the actuality of that China key domains like finance and telecommunication have been grasped by overseas server manufacturers and enhance China information security in economic and social lifelines. With further reduction of the strength gap between domestic and overseas server manufacturers in brand and technology, the market competition in high-end commercial domains has entered into a whole new historical stage.
