Oracle Database with Near-Linear Scalability on SAP SD Run
Eight-processor World Record Set with Four Sun Blade X6270 Module Nodes

Set on a cluster of four-node Sun Blade X6270 server module nodes, each with two Intel Xeon x5570 quad-core 2.93 GHz processors and running the Solaris 10 OS, the performance was near linear in scalability.
