The objective of this section is to compare three different customer scenarios by combining information from internal tests by the Dell Engineering Labs. An Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) workload is used in all three scenarios.
Each scenario presented in this section describes the requirements for each case, however it is important to remember that results depend on database environments and processer options, which can vary from workload to workload. The objective is not to compare the performance of the processors, but to discuss considerations that show how to customize an infrastructure for specific databases. Across each scenario, we will only review PowerEdge configurations to focus on server design choices.
