Containers Performance Characterization Example

From Siwiki

Consolidating enterprise infrastructure services that run on multiple servers to the Sun Fire T2000 platform using the Sun Java Enterprise System (Java ES) and Solaris Containers can simplify management, improve performance, and increase the efficiency of delivering enterprise infrastructure services.

This article discusses how to consolidate enterprise infrastructure services onto a single Sun Fire T2000 server using Java ES software. In addition, this paper describes best practices that have resulted from performance testing different deployment scenarios of the Java ES on a Sun Fire T2000 server. Tests show that deploying the Java ES using Solaris Containers can support nearly three times the number of users supported by a deployment that does not use Solaris Containers.
