Sybase, Inc. (NYSE: SY), an industry leader in enterprise and mobile software, today announced that its industry-leading Sybase® IQ column-based analytics server, in collaboration with solutions from HP and Red Hat, achieved the top data warehousing benchmark result among currently published non-clustered Linux® and x86 systems in the TPC-H™ benchmark at the 1 TB scale factor (2).

The new TPC-H benchmark result of 102,375 queries per hour (QphH) was recorded using Sybase IQ 15.1 with the HP ProLiant DL785 G6 server and running the Red Hat® Enterprise Linux 5.3 platform, achieving a price/performance of US$3.63 per transaction¹. The benchmark represents the best result among Linux and x86 vendors in the non-clustered marketplace at this scale factor² and is further proof of Sybase IQ‘s ability to deliver maximum performance by utilising available assets while reducing the cost of ownership for mid-tier organisations.

“Today’s businesses require mission-critical analytics, business intelligence and reporting solutions that deliver unsurpassed speed and affordability,” said Dereck Daymond, managing director at Sybase Australia and New Zealand. “This benchmark serves as additional evidence of Sybase IQ’s superior performance and scalability. Working with leading industry partners such as HP and Red Hat, Sybase IQ 15.1 provides the leading analytics query speeds that organisations of all sizes require.”

"Companies need insight from their business intelligence, data warehouse and reporting systems as fast as possible,” said Michael McNerney, Director of Product Marketing, Business Critical Systems, HP. "The benchmark achieved with Sybase software and the HP ProLiant DL785 G6 shows that customers can have greater speed, flexibility and analytical processing power in their mission-critical environments.”

“Red Hat Enterprise Linux provides a robust, high-performance and reliable platform for today’s enterprises,” said Rich Feldmann, Global Director, Financial Services Partners at Red Hat. “The combination of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3, HP and Sybase solutions has provided an impressive solution that is well-suited to meet the needs of industries that require fast and accurate information, such as financial service organisations.”
