  TPC-C Benchmark Heats Up, Windows Back on Top
Time: 07:29 EST/12:29 GMT | News Source: Ent Mag | Posted By: Jonathan Tigner

Thanks, Michael. HP hoisted its Superdome-Itanium-Windows combination to the top of the premier OLTP scalability benchmark on Tuesday, about a month after originally gaining the top spot and little more than a week after IBM displaced the combo with a system based on its own AIX/RISC/DB2 stack.

By matching HP's Superdome result on May 9, IBM showed that Unix/RISC will not go down easy now that Windows Server 2003 Datacenter Edition and Itanium 2 processors can scale in SMP configurations. By responding quickly on Tuesday, HP, Microsoft and Intel are showing that the Wintel partners are willing to fight for TPC-C bragging rights.
