Introduction
The Lenovo ThinkAgile VX650 V3 Certified Node, powered by VMware vSAN and using two Intel Xeon Platinum 8490H processors, delivers world record performance for the Throughput Phase for SAP® BW edition for SAP HANA® Standard Application Benchmark Version 3 with 7.8 billion initial records in a scale-up configuration.
The benchmark refers to the SAP Business Warehouse (SAP BW) application running on the SAP HANA database. The benchmark consists of three phases and the VX650 V3 server achieved the following performance results (1):
- Phase 1: Data load phase = 15,738 (Runtime of last Data Set in seconds)
- Phase 2: Query throughput phase = 4933 (Query Executions per Hour) (World Record)
- Phase 3: Query runtime phase = 109.9 (Total Runtime of complex query phase in seconds)
This world record result for the Throughput Phase shows that the ThinkAgile VX650 V3 Certified Node offers a significant performance advantage compared to other vendors.
