A customer needs a new server for their database currently running on a 16-core POWER7
4.1 GHz based server. Oracle has informed the customer that their SPARC T5 based
servers are best suited for running databases, because the SPARC T5 has eight threads
per core, while the current servers only allow for up to four threads per core.

Which of the following statements could be correctly used to repudiate the Oracle claim?

A. Databases are mostly single-threaded workloads. Scale-out POWERS servers have


higher clock speeds and can scale to more cores than SPARC T5 servers.
B. Oracle T5 Servers are engineered to run Oracle workloads faster. Non-Oracle
workloads will run slower on their hardware due to the amount of threads.
C. More threads will implicate more licensing for the database software. Less threaded
processors provide a better TCO by reducing the licensing.

A customer has a Power 740 with 16 cores and 64GB RAM, running an Oracle database.
The server is attached to an EXP24S with 20 disks 300GB 10K RPM and has been
experiencing performance issues. After an analysis there were some findings:

Average CPU usage for the database is 30%

Average Memory usage is 60%

High I/O waits are being experienced, around 50% of total CPU

An Oracle sales representative ran a POC of an Exadata X4-2 Half Rack to help with the
performance issues.

The performance on Exadata was better than the existing solution, so the customer called
IBM, considering a migration to a new Oracle solution.

Which response is appropriate to defend the IBM solution?

A. Exadata X4-2 Half Rack has four servers with two sockets each. It should be compared
with the performance of a POWER 770 which can also scale up to eight sockets. IBM can
propose an upgrade scenario to even move partitions without downtime with LPM.
B. Exadata is a solution comprised of servers, disk storage, flash storage, networking and
software. Your server is apparently fine, but there might be a problem with storage. IBM
can propose a faster storage solution, allowing you to keep the server and optimize your
costs.
C. Exadata might have run the Oracle database faster due to the fact that it is powered by
Oracle SPARC T5 processors which were designed for Oracle software. On the other
hand, other workloads will definitely run slower, so you should stick to the existing solution
for a balanced performance across your environment.
D. Exadata is comprised of a cluster of servers connected by Infiniband. You are
comparing this to a single server. IBM can propose a second server with an Infiniband
network to address this issue.
