ThinkSystem SR860 V2 Sets 2 World Records with New TPC-E Benchmark Result
Performance Benchmark Result
Lenovo has published a new TPC-E benchmark result that has set two world records. The result has been achieved on the powerful Lenovo ThinkSystem SR860 V2 server. The benchmark results are:
The world's #1 best overall TPC-E result for performance The world's #1 best overall TPC-E result for price/performance.
The TPC-E benchmark is designed to enable customers to objectively measure and compare the performance and price of various Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) and database systems.
The ThinkSystem SR860 V2 server achieved the following score (1):
12,162.59 tpsE (transactions per second E) @ $84.96 USD/tpsE
This result sets two new records:
The best performance in the industry: 7% faster than the previous overall best score. (2) The lowest ever price/performance.
With this new result, Lenovo servers now have the #1 1P (3), 4P (1), and overall (1) TPC-E performance and price/performance results as well as the #1 2P (4) TPC-E performance result.
The SR860 V2 achieved this record level of OLTP performance using the following configuration:
Four Intel Xeon Platinum 8380H Scalable processors at 2.90 GHz (4 processors each 28 cores, 112 total cores, 224 total threads) 3072 GB of Lenovo TruDDR4 memory Microsoft SQL Server 2019 Enterprise Edition Microsoft Windows Server 2016 Standard Edition
This result also relied on the Lenovo Storage D1224 DAS enclosures. Six D1224 storage enclosures and 126 SAS SSDs were used in the benchmark configuration, attached directly to the server using ThinkSystem RAID 930-8e controllers configured with RAID-5.
Results referenced are current as of November 19, 2020. To view all TPC results, visit http://www.tpc.org.
(1) The total solution availability for this TPC-E benchmark result is November 19, 2020. See the details for this result at http://www.tpc.org/4087
(2) The Lenovo ThinkSystem SR950 previously held the #1 overall TPC-E performance result and #1 4P TPC-E price/performance result. Result details are from http://www.tpc.org/4081. This result is in the TPC's Historical Result list.
