On a 4-socket natively-connected platform: Intel
®
Xeon
®
processor E7 family supports 64DIMMS, max memory per DIMM of 32 GB RDIMM; Intel
®
Xeon
®
processor E7 v2 family supports 96DIMMs, max memory per DIMM of 64 GB RDIMM.
This enables a 3x increase in memory.

Better performance at lower total cost claim based on Intel estimated SPECint*_rate_base2006 results and pricing of comparable 4-socket rack server using Intel
®
Xeon
®
processor E7-4890 v2 (37.5M Cache, 2.8 GHz, 15-Cores) to IBM
POWER*750 using POWER7+ (80M Cache, 4.0 GHz, 8-Cores) as of December 2013. SPECint_rate_base2006 benchmark results: 4-chip IBM POWER7+ (1230 baseline score) source: www.spec.org/cpu2006/results/res2013q3/cpu2006-

The claim of roughly 1.75x performance improvement for OLTP workloads with encrypted data and the claim that the performance overhead of encryption was less than or equal to one percent are based on a measurements of transactions per
minute (tpm) for an open-source OLTP benchmark running on the following server congurations. Baseline server conguration: Four-socket server platform with 4 x Intel
®
Xeon
®
processor E7-4870 (10-core, 2.4 GHz). New server conguration:

Software and workloads used in performance tests may have been optimized for performance only on Intel microprocessors. Performance tests, such as SYSmark and MobileMark, are measured using specic computer systems, components,
software, operations and functions. Any change to any of those factors may cause the results to vary. You should consult other information and performance tests to assist you in fully evaluating your contemplated purchases, including the
performance of that product when combined with other products.

SAP-OLTP is a lightweight rewrite of a Java-based SD Benchmark simulator for SAP R/3* version 7.02. SAP R/3 is the former name of SAP ERP.

The claims of up to 2.26x performance and up to 5 percent faster performance with encryption than without encryption are based on measured results for the SAP* SD benchmark simulator (LDSIMM) comparing total performance, as measured
by the number of dialog steps per second with and without encryption, on the following congurations. Baseline server conguration: Four-socket server platform with 4 x Intel
