“HP and Intel were very helpful. We would brainstorm
together, tell them the results we were seeing, and
readjust I/O, processor, or memory settings based on
their recommendations. When we saturated memory
on the server, Joseph Riggs, our HP account manager,
stepped in with another 16 GB so our testing could
continue. He did a great job of coordinating the
Friday meetings, helping us work through issues, and
keeping everybody on the same page with updates.
The HP and Intel experts collaborated together and
that made our lives easier,” Perlman says.

Benchmark results confirmed that as the CTO adds
more applications to the Integrity server, impact to the
service levels/throughput will remain constant. “On the
Integrity rx4640 Server and Windows 2003, we were
able to run nine separate, heavily used SQL Server
database instances with linear scalability, which met
our requirements,” says Peddicord. “By the time we
finished testing, over 10 million rows of data or
100,000 transactions per second were going through
the server.”

The CTO gets 10 to 15 new SQL Server requests from
our internal users per month. By consolidating on
Integrity servers, they can avoid more than $300,000
in SQL Server licensing costs and obtain savings of
more than $1.1 million in support over four years.

The tests also revealed that because Microsoft SQL
Server applications maintain performance within the
64-bit framework, a large number of less-utilized SQL
Server applications can share a single host in
WellPoint’s development environment. Plus, 64-bit
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 right out of the box—with
default values for CPU affinity, I/O affinity, and
dynamic memory allocation—serves as a solid
foundation concerning performance.

Attribute this solid foundation to the collaboration
among partners HP, Intel, and Microsoft. They
participate together in rigorous development activities
to make sure that their products perform optimally, and
they certify their products on each other’s technologies,
which allows enterprises like WellPoint to exploit the
performance and scalability features of each
innovation.

Besides performance, the modular style of the Integrity
server impressed Peddicord. “The memory and power
supplies are on top and in a separate cage. So, if you
have problems with something, it’s just a matter of pop
and swap,” he says.
