A Comparative Performance Evaluation of Multi Processor Multi Core Server Processor Architectures on Enterprise Middleware Performance

摘要

In this paper we describe the performance evaluation and comparison of server based “Enterprise Middleware” frameworks on multi-processor multi-core server processor architectures. We experimented a 'single processor quad core Intel Xeon' server processor and a 'dual processor dual core multiprocessor AMD Opteron'. Also we discuss the expected enterprise middleware framework execution performance of the two micro-architectures by analyzing the statistics obtained from the respective microprocessor technical data sheets. Our experiment results show that the “single processor Xeon” gives a better throughput than the “multiprocessor Opteron”. With this study we found that the 'single processor quad core Intel Xeon' server processor outperforms the 'dual core dual processor AMD Opteron' server processor in executing server based enterprise middleware applications. Hence we see that out of the two evaluated server processor architectures the single processor multi-core architecture is giving better performance than the multi-processor multi-core architecture, in executing enterprise middleware frameworks.licat
