A cluster of these servers running VMware vSphere 7.0 Update 1 and vSAN delivered better value than a cluster of the same servers with 2nd Gen AMD EPYC 7542 processors
Distributed MongoDB databases can help your business by bringing together information from a variety of sources. Servers that run these databases more quickly can give decision makers the freshest information sooner, whereas slower servers can take longer to generate actionable insights.
Running read-intensive big data MongoDB workloads in our data center, a VMware vSphere® 7.0 Update 1 cluster of four single-socket Dell EMC™ PowerEdge™ R6515 servers powered by 3rd Gen AMD EPYC™ 75F3 processors executed 20 percent more Yahoo Cloud Serving Benchmark (YCSB) operations per second (OPS) compared to a cluster of the same servers with 2nd Gen AMD EPYC 7542 processors. When we coupled the better performance with the hardware and support cost for both solutions, we saw a performance-per-dollar difference of 8.7 percent.
MongoDB is a document-based database that uses a distributed approach to storing data. According to to document and data structure can be changed over time.”1
