Cisco UCS Delivers the Best 2-socket SAP Sales and Distribution (SD) on Linux Benchmark Results

Feb, 05, 2013 Hi-network.com

Cisco announced thebest 2-socket SAP Sales and Distribution (SD) on Linux Benchmark result with the Cisco Unified Computing System? (Cisco UCS?)deliveringimpressive scalability and performanceto growing deployments of SAP Business Suite applications.

Cisco's results on the SAP Sales and Distribution (SD) Benchmark support forup to 6,530 concurrent users and a 35,680 SAP Application Performance Standard (SAPS) scorederived from theprocessing of 713,670 order line items per hour and 2,141,000 dialog steps per hour.

The benchmark results successfully demonstrate how aCisco UCS? B200 M3 Blade Server delivers high scalability and low latency to SAP Business Suite solutionsby supporting up to 6,530 concurrent users in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Sybase ASE environment. High-performance blade servers and network fabrics enables application throughput optimization as Cisco UCS handles many SAP application tasks, with results showing that the system can process 713,670 order line items per hour or 2,141,000 dialog steps per hour.

 The tested configuration consisted of a Cisco Unified Computing System? chassis equipped with one Cisco UCS B200 M3 Blade Server running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.3. The server was configured with two 2.90-GHz, 8-core Intel? Xeon? processor E5-2690 CPUs and 256 GB of 1600-MHz memory. The blade server ran both the SAP Business Suite application software and the 64-bit Sybase ASE Server 15.7. The SAP Enhancement Package 5 for SAP Enterprise Resource Planning 6.0 was used in this scenario. One LSI 400GB SLC WarpDrive provided solid-state disk capacity for database log files that require low-latency write access.

The "Cisco UCS B200 M3 Blade Server: Scalable Performance and Capacity for SAP Business Suite Applications" Performance Brief provides additional benchmark configuration details.Official Benchmark Certification is available at the  SAP? Standard Application Benchmarks certification web site.

 Cisco UCS deployed with Red Hat? Enterprise Linux? provides additionalflexibility, efficiency and savings.Combined with enterprise-class open source operating system Cisco UCS servers are the perfect foundation for any standards-based infrastructure solution. The LSI 400GB SLC WarpDrive enables storage performance to be decoupled from storage capacity. Using solid-state disk technology and intelligent caching software, the LSI 400GB SLC WarpDrive integrates a powerful new memory tier that is uniquely designed to accelerate in-server application performance for database workloads.

 By deploying SAP Business Suite on Cisco UCS configured with Red Hat? Enterprise Linux?, LSI solid-state storage and running Sybase ASE Server, IT departments can support more users and accelerate response. IT departments can choose from a full range of Cisco UCS blade and rack server models toscale deployments further with larger servers, or add servers, to create scale-out deployments with a small footprint.These innovations and a dramatic reduction in the number of physical components demonstrate Cisco's commitment to delivering systems that provide value to SAP deployments.
