Principled Technologies Releases Competitive OLTP Database Workload

Testing Results Between a Single-Processor AMD EPYC Solution and a

Dual-Processor Intel Xeon Solution

IT professionals at Principled Technologies (PT) found that replacing fifteen legacy servers with
either four current-gen AMD EPYC 7551P processor-powered single-socket Dell EMC PowerEdge
R7415 servers or four current-gen Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processor-powered dual-socket
Supermicro SuperServer 2029U servers resulted in similar OLTP database performance gains.

Durham, NC, September 13, 2019 --(PR.com)-- For companies that run OLTP database workloads and
are thinking about replacing older hardware, good deals on current-generation servers are available. But,
should they choose single-socket servers powered by AMD EPYC 7551P processors or dual-socket
servers powered by Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors? The IT professionals at PT found that, for
companies with data centers using VMware vSphere Enterprise Plus, choosing the single-processor AMD
EPYC solution could result in similar OLTP database performance as the dual-processor Intel Xeon
solution at half the licensing cost.

According to the report, “By selecting the AMD EPYC 7551P processor-powered single-socket Dell
EMC PowerEdge R7415, however, your company could get similar database performance at half the
VMware vSphere licensing costs of an Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processor-powered dual-socket Supermicro
SuperServer 2029U. The single-socket AMD solution also used less power under load and while idle,
making it a compelling choice for companies looking to minimize their operating expenses.”

Interested parties can learn more about the licensing cost savings from choosing this particular
single-processor AMD EPYC solution over the comparably performing dual-processor Intel Xeon
solution by reading the full report here: http://facts.pt/rvrcdk3.
