SGI, a provider of high-performance server and storage solutions, has announced verified test results that show SGI Altix to be the industry’s fastest, most scalable Linux system for real-world, multi-tier applications running Oracle Database 10g. The company said it delivered the best “All Linux” benchmark result with a medium-sized Oracle Database 10g.

Running the Oracle E-Business Suite 11i (11.5.10) Benchmark, also known as the Oracle Applications Standard Benchmark (OASB), an SGI Altix 450 system delivered twice the performance of the previous record holder in tests that measure average response times for 2,000 online users. The SGI system also delivered record hourly throughput in Oracle’s measurement of order management and payroll batch business processes.
