Intel Corporation TIGPR2U Carrier Grade Server versus Sun Microsystems, Inc. Netra 20 Server Compet

Abstract

Intel Corp. commissioned The Tolly Group to evaluate its TIGPR2U Carrier Grade Server with two 2.4-GHx Xeon processors. The Intel TIGPR2U is a rack-mountable, high performance server intended for use in telecommunications networks. Intel also requested that The Tolly Group test the performance of a Sun Microsystems, Inc. Netra 20 Server with two 900-MHz processors. Both devices were subjected to a series of tests designed to gauge the capability of each server while performing a variety of common in-memory database transactions that included populate, scan, lookup, update, delete and insert. The Tolly Group conducted database transaction rate tests on both servers using the Solid Information Technology Corp. FlowEngine data management application.
