UniVision64 XBENCH result shows blistering performance
Via Systems Inc. is pleased to announce the General Customer Availability of UniVision64, the 64-bit implementation of its widely installed MultiValue Database Management System for Linux ES/AS 4.0.x and IBM AIX 5.3.x.
Laura Hatfield, Via Systems Inc. , US Operations Manager said;
'We conducted the XBENCH 3.0 benchmarking tests for UniVision64 Release 9.0.2 on a Dell 2900 system, which delivered a blistering performance level at 15,223.68X.
The Dell 2900 configuration ran with a single 3.0GHz Xeon Dual Core processor, 4 x 73GB 15K RPM disk drives in a striped and mirrored RAID configuration, 2GB RAM, 667MHz FSB, a dual 10/100/1Gb NIC, dual hot-plug redundant PSU's, a DAT 72GB tape drive, CD and monitor, all with a low cost of just under $5,000 including three years Dell NBD Bronze Service, on Linux ES 4.0.x.
This low cost high performance Dell 2900 configuration is capable of supporting well, up to 500-networked application users at a staggeringly low cost of $10 per user, including three years NBD hardware service!'
When told of the UniVision64 XBENCH result Robin T. White, now in retirement, former General Manager of ADDS and the individual responsible for bringing to market the highly successful ADDS Mentor MultiValue computer system said;
'As I recall, in the early eighties the first Mentors were between 1 & 3X and did a reasonable job at the time of supporting 16 users. I also remember Ultimate coming out with its "super fast" 5X Honeywell Level 6 based machine that supported 128 users. The UniVision64 XBENCH result at 15,223.68X is incredible performance, achieved on such a low cost Dell/Linux server platform.'
Via Systems' UniVision64 is an object implementation of the MultiValue Database Management System engineered in fewer than 200,000 lines of C++.
UniVision is widely installed throughout the world supporting powerful multi-user applications in large commercial and governmental organizations.
