Siebel eBusiness Application Suite

Updated: January 4, 2006

SQL Server 2005 is the most compelling platform to run Siebel business applications. Benchmarks demonstrate not only world-class performance, but also the outstanding price/performance ratio that customers will take advantage of when deploying on the SQL Server and Microsoft Windows Server.

World class scalability: 30,000 concurrent Siebel users

In October 2005, Siebel certified the Siebel 7.7 benchmark with 30,000 concurrent users. SQL Server 2005 (64-bit edition) and Windows Server 2003 offer world-class performance for Siebel customers at a very compelling total cost of ownership (TCO). The throughput, scalability, and reliability delivered by SQL Server 2005 can power the largest and most complex Siebel business applications. SQL Server 2005 enhancements, in particular nonuniform memory access (NUMA) support in the SQL Server Database Engine, allowed for almost linear scalability.
