Bull sets a new world performance record Server-Side Java SPECjbb2005 benchmark with its recently announced NovaScale 5165 server powered by 16 Intel® Itanium® 2 processors.
With a performance of 207,751 bops (Business Operations per Second), the NovaScale 5165 is ranked at the top of the 16-core based servers running Linux®.
Today, large enterprise applications are moving towards interoperability and centralization. In order to facilitate their development, implementation and operation, they are increasingly brought together using application servers or application frameworks. This offers a robust technical infrastructure that enables IT departments to concentrate their efforts on the business functionality.
Bull NovaScale server and BEA Systems Inc. JVM JRockit® results are key for customers that need outstanding performance for their J2EE applications using the JVM (Java machine).
Cost reductions, high levels of flexibility and openness
Customers will be able to centralize their application infrastructure while benefiting from the performance, availability and robustness of the NovaScale platform, thus achieving a better control over enterprise applications and infrastructures.
