Cisco UCS Claims Nine World Record Benchmarks with the Intel? Xeon? processor E5-2600 v4 family

Mar, 31, 2016 Hi-network.com

Today Cisco announced support for the Intel? Xeon? processor E5-2600 v4 family on the Cisco Unified Computing System? (Cisco UCS?).

On the same day as the Intel announcement, Cisco capturedNine world records on industry benchmarks on Cisco UCSto highlight the way in which Cisco UCS can accelerate performance across the data center. As we know, there is no better way to compare performance than by using industry-standard benchmarks, and with Nine new world record benchmark performance results Cisco has demonstrated Cisco Unified Computing System'soutstanding performance and IT productivity across key data center workloads.Check out the Performance Brief for additional information on the nine new Cisco UCS world record benchmarks. The detailed benchmark disclosure reports are available here. Theperformance leadership across a wide range of workloadsprovided by Cisco UCS is validated by the nine World records announced today summarized below:

  1. SPECfp?_rate_base2006-Best 2-socket x86-architecture result
  2. SPECint?_rate_base-Best 2-socket x86-architecture result
  3. SPECint_base2006-Best 2-socket x86-architecture result
  4. SPECjbb?2015-MultiJVM-Best 2-socket x86-architecture result for critical jOPS
  5. SPECfp?_base2006-Best 2-socket x86-architecture result
  6. TPC Express Benchmark HS(TPCx-HS)- Best performance and price/performance at the 1-TB scale factor
  7. TPC Express Benchmark HS(TPCx-HS)- Best performance and price/performance at the 10-TB scale factor
  8. SAP Sales and Distribution (SD)- Best 2-processor, 44-core, 2-tier result
  9. SPEC?OMPG2012-Best 2-socket x86-architecture result

 Cisco's world-record-setting benchmark results also demonstratedramatic performance improvementsover the prior- generation Intel? Xeon? processor E5 family. Cisco's results demonstrate the degree to which Cisco UCS servers with large memory configurations deliver the power of the new Intel Xeon processor E5 v4 family. Compared to Cisco's previous-generation servers powered by the Intel Xeon processor E5 v3 family, Cisco's new servers demonstratedramatic improvements in raw CPU power as well as business and parallelized application performance.

Cisco UCS with the Intel? Xeon? processor E5-2600 v4 family deliveredup to 127 percent better performanceover the prior generation Intel? Xeon? processor E5 family as shown in the graph below:

Performance Improvement Compared to Previous Generation Cisco UCS Servers (Percent)

It is interesting to note that although all vendors have access to same Intel processors, Cisco UCS unleashes their potential to deliver high performance to applications through the power of unification and performance optimization. Cisco UCS integrates industry-standard x86-architecture blade and rack servers with networking and storage access into a unified system. Automated server and network configuration let you quickly and easily deploy new applications, repurpose existing servers, and scale applications with configurations that are compliant with your IT standards.

Cisco's continued performance leadership with Cisco UCS comes in part due to the power of the Intel Xeon processors that power Cisco UCS servers. Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 v4 family CPUs provide the best balance of performance, power efficiency, and features to meet the diverse needs of your data center applications and workloads. Built on 14-nanometer (nm) processor technology, these innovative processors offer up to 22 cores, large high-speed memory configurations, and accelerated I/O throughput, delivering significant performance improvements compared to previous-generation processors. The processors also offer increased memory bandwidth monitoring and cache allocation capabilities, optimum data center orchestration and virtualization features, and hardware-assisted security advancements, which work in conjunction with Cisco UCS servers to further enhance the value of IT infrastructure in your enterprise.

The architectural advantages of a single cohesive system optimized for virtualized environments coupled with the industry leading benchmark performance results makes the Cisco Unified Computing System an "infrastructure platform of choice" to provide industry-leading performance in your data center.
