Unisys ES7000 Server and Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Set PeopleSoft CRM 8.4 Extraordinary Performance BenchmarkSolution Supports More Than 25,000 Simulated Concurrent Users
LAS VEGAS, Nev., April 30, 2002 – Unisys today announced an unparalleled performance benchmark for PeopleSoft Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Release 8.4 for Services, Sales and Collaborative Selling. The online benchmark demonstrates the scalability of running the PeopleSoft CRM solution on a Unisys ES7000 server with Microsoft's SQL Server 2000 database and Windows 2000 Datacenter Server operating system.
PeopleSoft CRM 8.4 for Services, Sales and Collaborative Selling is based on an open, extensible pure Internet architecture, connecting people -- customers, suppliers, partners, and employees -- to business processes online and in real time. The result is improved enterprise performance and lower costs of doing business. The PeopleSoft benchmark demonstrates the software's performance characteristics for a range of processing volumes in a specific configuration.
The benchmark demonstrated support for 25,200 simulated concurrent users and performed CRM transactions at the rate of 2,024 business processes per minute. These results were achieved on a 24-processor Unisys ES7000 database server and yielded average response times between one and two seconds.
The benchmark simulated enterprise users performing demanding tasks associated with PeopleSoft CRM 8.4 Services, Sales and Collaborative Selling transactions on a Unisys ES7000 database server with 24 processors running Windows 2000 Datacenter Server and SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition. Driving the database server were fourteen eight-processor application servers and seven four-processor web servers. The 25,200 concurrent users were simulated using LoadRunner, the industry-standard load testing software from Mercury Interactive.
"This new benchmark shows PeopleSoft CRM customers can get incomparable performance scalability with SQL Server 2000, Windows 2000 Datacenter Server, and Unisys Enterprise Server ES7000s," said Gordon Mangione, vice president of SQL Server at Microsoft. "The large number of concurrent users and processed transactions is proof that this architecture meets the needs of collaborative enterprises."
"We're excited to add this important measure of enterprise computing performance to the array of benchmark records the Unisys ES7000 has accumulated running Microsoft's Windows 2000 Datacenter Server and SQL Server 2000," said Mike Thomas, vice president, Unisys Global Partners. "Because of its widespread use in the large enterprises we specialize in serving, PeopleSoft is an important part of our strategic program to combine mainframe-class computing characteristics with the superior economics of Windows-based computing. This achievement is another very important key milestone for us." About Unisys Unisys is a worldwide information technology services and solutions company.
