SQL Performance

MARCH 17, 2020

This follow-up post revisits the question for SQL Server 2019, using a larger number of rows. It has 32GB RAM, with 24GB available to the SQL Server 2019 instance. It would be nice if SQL Server could push the aggregation down into the scan and just return distinct values from the column store directly.

On August 7, 2019, AMD finally unveiled their new 7nm EPYC 7002 Series of server processors, formerly code-named "Rome" at the AMD EPYC Horizon Event in San Francisco. This is the second generation EPYC server processor that uses the same Zen 2 architecture as the AMD Ryzen 3000 Series desktop processors.

My personal opinion is that I don't see a widespread need for more capacity given horizontal scaling and servers that can already exceed 1 Tbyte of DRAM; bandwidth is also helpful, but I'd be concerned about the increased latency for adding a hop to more memory.

It enables the user to measure database performance and make comparative judgements about database hardware and software. These factors meant that often when looking for database performance information, the results for a particular combination of software and hardware were not available. What is HammerDB? Why HammerDB was developed.

The worldwide ASP 18 months ago was ~$300USD , so the average performance in the deployed fleet can be represented by a $300 device from mid-2019.

This includes the work done by the server, the client and the intermediary communications networks that transmit data between the two. Jack Lenox.
