Tests Perform at Over 700 Transactions per Second with Thousands of Concurrent Users, Validating Lower TCO Enterprise Solution
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (July 7, 2011) – Camstar Systems, Inc. announced today that benchmark performance testing of Camstar’s Enterprise Platform running on Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 using real world scenarios shows that manufacturers can scale database operations while receiving outstanding performance at a reduced cost. Tests were run at a Microsoft Corp. lab by Microsoft [NASDAQ: MSFT] and Camstar collaboratively.
The study demonstrated over 700 Camstar manufacturing execution system (MES) transactions per second while supporting several thousand concurrent application users.
"The Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 performance data collected in this simulation is extremely impressive," said Scott Jones, CTO of Camstar. "Using real manufacturing production models in Camstar Manufacturing, the solution more than triples the maximum MES transaction volume ever required by a Camstar customer. This benchmark testing affirms Microsoft SQL Server with the Camstar Enterprise Platform fulfills the requirements for the largest manufacturing environments in the world in terms of performance, scalability, and ease of use."
"This benchmark gives customers a compelling demonstration of the scale, performance, and stability of Microsoft SQL Server and Windows Server 2008 with Camstar solutions," said Craig Rode, Industry Solutions Manager, Microsoft High Tech and Electronics Industry. "I am glad to show that customers can achieve the best performance at a lower total cost of ownership with this solution."
The detailed benchmark report will be available at Camstar’s booth #5578 at Semicon West in San Francisco on July 12-14. To download a copy, please visit http://pages.camstar.com/microsoftbenchmark.
