Virtualized consolidation on the SPECvirt_sc*2010
SPECvirt_sc* replaces retired VMmark* 1, allowing for nearly any hypervisor, hardware, or software stack measuring performance and power (server only or server and storage). The benchmark was developed using an open-source software stack, but many software options are available for the six VMs in each tile. There is a QoS requirement and the result is the "supermetric" arithmetic mean of the mail, web, and application server throughput scores.
Benchmark description for SPECvirt_sc*2010
Virtualized servers enable faster ROI and lower TCO for the datacenters that are expanding and rapidly putting great strains on IT resources. The next generation Intel® Xeon® E7-4800 product family demonstrates the better option for managing the growth by consolidating heterogeneous applications onto a single server, but giving confidence that the enhanced reliability features means even the most business critical applications can be run quickly and reliably.
