TPCtestejä

TPCtestejä refers to a series of benchmark tests developed by the Transaction Processing Performance Council (TPC). The TPC is a non-profit corporation that defines and publishes industry-standard benchmarks for transaction processing and database systems. These benchmarks are designed to provide objective, vendor-neutral measurements of computer system performance in various application environments.

The TPC develops and maintains several benchmarks, each focusing on different aspects of system performance. Some of the most well-known include TPC-C, which simulates an online transaction processing (OLTP) environment, and TPC-H, which is designed for decision support systems. The results of these benchmarks are often published by vendors to demonstrate the performance capabilities of their hardware and software products.

The purpose of TPCtestejä is to allow customers to compare the performance of different systems under realistic workloads. By adhering to strict rules and methodologies, the TPC aims to ensure that benchmark results are fair and reproducible. This helps in making informed purchasing decisions for critical IT infrastructure. The council includes a wide range of companies, including hardware vendors, software developers, and end-users, contributing to the development and evolution of these benchmarks.
