154.18 | SyncSort Available on Alpha | MRKTNG::SLATER | Marc, ASE Performance Group | Fri Mar 31 1995 23:59 | 41 |
| Worldwide News LIVE WIRE
SyncSort available for Digital's Alpha ... Date: 29-Mar-1995
Page 1 of 1 SyncSort available for Digital's Alpha systems
SyncSort, Inc. and Digital have announced the availability of
SyncSort, Syncsort's high performance sort utility, running on Digital's
Alpha computer systems.
SyncSort recently showed record-setting performance in benchmark
tests by Digital on an AlphaServer 2100 system with 25Gb of striped
disk space, completing gigabyte sorts in less than 15 minutes and
100Mb sorts in less than a minute.
"Two years ago, sorting a gigabyte of data on any system other
than a mainframe would have taken hours," said Andrew Coleman, director
of software engineering at Syncsort. "Today, it can be done in
minutes, on a system costing a tiny fraction of the cost of a mainframe.
"That kind of price/performance creates new application
opportunities. High volume data analysis and data processing
applications that may previously have been prohibitvely expensive can
now be implemented in a cost-effective form."
Companies migrating large applications from their mainframe to
UNIX need the same powerful tools on the UNIX platform as they are
accustomed to using on the mainframe. SyncSort is the most frequently
installed third-party software product on mainframe systems.
More than 95 percent of Fortune 100 companies use SyncSort.
"UNIX is frequently the platform of choice today for implementing
commercial applications that process large volumes of data," said
Coleman. "For these applications, a high performance sort is critical,
particularly when moving large files into or out of a relational
database. The availability of SyncSort on Digital's UNIX platform
makes it easier for customers to get the best performing hardware and
software, whether migrating from IBM mainframes or any other platform."
"SyncSort is the industry standard for sorting, and the Digital
UNIX and OpenVMS versions deliver impressive performance and features,"
according to John O'Keefe, Digital's vice president of UNIX Marketing.
"Add the outstanding performance of Alpha and Digital, and we
have a winning solution for the growing client/server and mainframe
downsizing markets," O'Keefe said.
