Moving on from database, more world record performance, this time with Java. From the BestPerf blog:
- SPARC T5-8 Delivers SPECjEnterprise2010 Benchmark World Record Performance
- SPARC T5-2 Achieves SPECjbb2013 Benchmark World Record Result
And there's a new white paper available, which discusses the specific advantages for Java performance that Oracle Solaris gives you, such as:
- Dynamic threading
- Large page support
- Optimized support for NUMA architectures, including I/O locality
- Support for very large memory configurations with the new highly efficient predictive virtual memory system in Oracle Solaris 11.1
- Leveraging the Oracle Solaris Cryptographic Framework feature for best use of hardware acceleration and optimized software crypto algorithms
- Leading-edge network performance
It also delves into why Oracle Solaris is a great deployment platform in general for enterprise Java apps.
