Shay Hassidim, Deputy CTO of GigaSpaces Inc., writes that for the last few weeks they ran a joint project with Sun and Intel teams — A Scale-Up Benchmark on the Sun Fire X4450 multi core servers using Intel Xeon 7460 processors (4 CPUs with six cores each) with GigaSpaces middleware (GigaSpaces XAP ver. 6.6.2). The benchmark focused on application scalability and latency and tested the platform with mission critical applications in different scenarios. The results in this article show that the combined platform provides very scalable behavior with very low, deterministic latency for highly concurrent applications.
Shay explains more about GigaSpaces XAP Benchmarks and the results.
