Our tests demonstrate linear scaling in terms of the throughput achieved by consistently adding VMs to the tests. This clearly demonstrates the viability of the overall solution for SQL Server 2022.
We used the HammerDB Power tests without a refresh function. These tests included 22 queries on a single VM and on three VMs.
These tests scaled one VM to three VMs while maintaining nearly linear scaling across our AX-7525 cluster. The overall results of our Power tests when averaged across each VM demonstrated near linear scale when measuring the time it took for the Power test to complete.
