ERP performance on SAP* Sales and Distribution (SD) two-tier

Information flow is critical to support business planning with sales and distribution of products from the sales order, to the delivery, to the invoicing of customers. Intel's next generation Intel® Xeon® processor E7-4800 product family demonstrates the better option for managing the data flow in a two-tier environment where the clients are supported by a single application and database server.

Benchmark description for SAP-SD* two-tier

Enterprise resource planning (ERP) integrates several data sources and processes of an organization into a unified system. SAP*- Sales and Distribution (SD) is a product by SAP* that helps to optimize all the tasks and activities carried out in sales, delivery, and billing. Key elements are: presales support, inquiry processing, quotation processing, sales order processing, delivery processing, billing, and sales information system. The SAP-SD benchmark has a defined set of business transactions that one or more users repeat. Each transaction is full business workflow of an order line item - creating the order, creating a delivery note for this order, displaying the order, changing the delivery, posting a goods issue, listing orders, and creating an invoice. The reported metric is the number of SD benchmark users that is supported by the server.

Product and Performance Information

open

1. Performance tests and ratings are measured using specific computer systems and/or components and reflect the approximate performance of Intel® products as measured by those tests. Any difference in system hardware or software design or configuration may affect actual performance. Buyers should consult other sources of information to evaluate the performance of systems or components they are considering purchasing. For more information on performance tests and on the performance of Intel products, visit www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/benchmarks/resources-benchmark-limitations.html.


2. Relative performance for each benchmark is calculated by taking the actual benchmark result for the first platform tested and assigning it a value of 1.0 as a baseline. Relative performance for the remaining platforms tested was calculated by dividing the actual benchmark result for the baseline platform into each of the specific benchmark results of each of the other platforms and assigning them a relative performance number that correlates with the performance improvements reported.
