OLAP Workloads. Oracle implements OLaP within an Oracle database
environment. the typical applications of OLaP are in business reporting
for sales, marketing, Business Performance Management (BPM), budgeting
and forecasting, financial reporting, and planning. Figure 5 shows an up
to 23 percent performance advantage of QLogic over emulex, with QLogic
supporting higher overall iOPS for Oracle OLaP.

the QLogic 2500 Series 8Gb Fibre Channel adapter provides a critical
element of overall performance in the selection and deployment of the
storage solution.

Summary and Conclusion

QLogic continues to be the industry leader in delivering high-performance
i/O solutions to data center customers. the iOPS and latency of the QLogic
10000 Series 8Gb Fibre Channel adapter is best in class and provides an
unprecedented high level of performance, superior scalability, and enhanced
reliability that exceeds the requirements for next-generation Oracle
environments. the unique caching solution of the QLogic 10000 Series
adapter has the increased performance needed to meet the escalating
requirements of Oracle database servers. the results of the benchmark
tests demonstrate the i/O performance and scalability advantages of the
QLogic 10000 Series adapter for Oracle performance, which results in
overall reduced total cost of ownership (tCO).

Because Oracle is one of the most prevalent, business-critical applications
in enterprises, administrators go to great lengths to ensure optimal
performance. they consider scalability and performance as major factors
when they work to improve Oracle server operation. the QLogic 10000
Series adapter provides superior scalability and performance for Oracle
database servers, which makes the QLogic adapter the right choice for
enterprise data centers.

Oracle environments are carefully designed to cater to varying and
unpredictable loads. as heavier demands occur in the data center, the SaN
must contain the resources to meet the minimum business requirements

for higher performance. QLogic 10000 Series adapters support the required
performance scalability—13 × iOPS improvement over the non-cached
operations—which makes a positive impact on an organization’s bottom
line. the QLogic 10000 Series 8Gb Fibre Channel adapter with built-in i/O
caching is designed to meet the ever-increasing demands being placed on
Oracle environments.

the iOPS and throughput of the QLogic 2500 Series 8Gb Fibre Channel
adapter is best in class and provides an unprecedented level of high
performance, superior scalability, and enhanced reliability that exceeds the
requirements for next-generation data centers. as existing infrastructures
transition to 8Gb and beyond, increasing performance is required to meet
the ever-increasing application requirements in SaN environments.

it managers know that choosing the right adapter for their SaN infrastructure
can have a strong impact on the performance, agility, and scalability of their
enterprise storage environments. the results of this study demonstrate that
QLogic 2500 Series 8Gb Fibre Channel adapters consistently outperform
emulex LightPulse 12000 adapters in today’s real-world environments and
provide significant headroom for future scalability.

Oracle applications demand the highest levels of performance. Selecting
the QLogic 2500 Series 8Gb Fibre Channel adapters translates to a clear
performance benefit, enabling enterprises to do more with less and drive
more value from their SaN infrastructure investments. When executing
OLtP applications that require high throughput, data warehousing that
requires an increase in data volume, or OLaP to support business reporting,
QLogic continues to demonstrate and deliver the highest performing
adapter product.
