We had some issues last week though with the blog and it disappearing from sight for a couple of days. Sorry to the readers out there! But...we're back, and so is some great news! In fact, it's such great news, I can't believe it's taken me this long to write about it!
The Domino 8.5 Performance Benchmarks are out! This great article outlines the performance improvements seen in benchmark testing simply by upgrading from Domino 8.0.x to Domino 8.5. And let me tell you...there are some IMPRESSIVE numbers in there! The tests performed were intended to mimic the actions of everyday Notes/Domino users - with messaging and calendar operations on the server. Then, the team measured % processor busy, disk operations per second and disk megabytes transferred per second.
We've been telling you that Domino 8.5 is THE release to help reduce TCO and these benchmarks help prove that! The article summarizes:
You can realize substantial I/O reductions, reductions in disk operations per second by 22 percent to 33 percent, and reductions in disk bytes transferred per second by 31 percent to 67 percent. In addition, processor utilization has been reduced by as much as 20 percent. Upgrading to Lotus Domino 8.5 can lower your Lotus Domino deployment total cost of ownership.
So..take a look at the results! You also might want to think about moving to Domino 8.5 soon!
