Did you know?
BladeCenter HS22 delivered leadership two-processor, single-node result for SPECjEnterprise2010 —
2,752.06 Enterprise jAppServer Operations Per Second (SPECjEnterprise2010 EjOPS). This score was
achieved using the HS22 as the application server running IBM WebSphere Application Server V7 as the
middle tier and the System x3850 X5 as the database server running IBM DB2 9.7 Enterprise Server. With
this SPECjEnterprise2010 result, we demonstrate the server's ability to provide both software and
hardware for an optimal solution in the middle tier and in the back-end database layer, and also to deliver a
robust solution for clients' complex workloads.
