Servers: Database consolidation on Dell PowerEdge R810 servers
12
Our testing results
As Figure 3 shows, we were able to run 24 SQL Server 2008 R2
database workloads (six databases on four instances), all
simultaneously achieving an average throughput greater than the
HP ProLiant DL385 solution’s orders per minute score. To be
specific, the average OPM delivered by each of the 24 workloads on
the Dell PowerEdge R810 solution was 7,523, while the average
OPM delivered by 1 workload on the HP ProLiant DL385 solution
was 6,639.
