Infor EAM and SQL Server 2008 R2:
Benchmark Testing Results
Benchmark testing confirms that SQL Server 2008 R2 supports enterprise-
class deployments of Infor EAM
V1.0 Published: February 2011
Abstract
The preferred Infor™ EAM deployment platform for small-to-medium size businesses (SMBs) is the
Microsoft® software stack, which includes Windows Server®, Microsoft® SQL Server™, and Microsoft®
SharePoint® Server. With the new Infor/Microsoft alliance, the companies now aim to support tier-1
clients as well.
This white paper presents the results of benchmark testing with Infor EAM v8.5 and Microsoft SQL Server
2008 R2 data management software running on Intel® Xeon® processors. Engineers from Infor and
Microsoft conducted tests on enterprise-class hardware capable of hosting up to 2,400 concurrent users
and with a volume of data typically generated by this number of users.
The benchmark testing showed that transaction times for typical business tasks remained almost constant
for the duration of the test on both a full hardware configuration with a full load and on a scaled-down
hardware configuration with a reduced load more typical of production infrastructure. The tests clearly
demonstrate that SQL Server is an appropriate database choice in scenarios that require the application
and database servers to run for a long time without downtime.

1 Overview
In capital-intensive industries such as utilities, manufacturing, healthcare, and real estate,
physical assets—including buildings, infrastructure, and equipment—form a significant
percentage of the organization’s total assets. These industries operate in highly competitive
markets and are required to adhere to stringent occupational and environmental safety
regulations. Underperforming assets can decrease an organization’s profitability and inhibit
growth by increasing costs and decreasing production and productivity. Poor asset management
can expose the business to violations of safety regulations and compliance requirements, and
can reduce customer satisfaction.
Enterprise asset management (EAM) software helps organizations manage their assets across
departments, locations, and facilities—improving utilization and performance, reducing capital
costs, reducing asset-related operating costs, extending asset life, and improving the
organizations’ return on assets (ROA).
Infor EAM is a leading EAM software solution that has been helping companies worldwide—
including more than 60 percent of the Fortune 500—for more than 20 years. By taking
advantage of Infor’s experience, organizations can streamline their asset and maintenance
planning processes to save time, improve equipment and staff productivity, and increase
inventory efficiency to save money.
Infor recognizes that Microsoft is a key vendor in many of their customers' businesses and has
engaged in a long-standing strategic partnership with Microsoft built on a close working
relationship to deliver business-specific solutions that meet the individual needs of customers.
The partnership provides Infor with access to Microsoft resources and lets Infor develop a clear
understanding of Microsoft technology. Infor uses Microsoft platforms and tools to enrich,
extend, and evolve Infor solutions, including Infor EAM, to help customers manage the fast-
paced changes in their businesses.
The Microsoft software stack—including Windows Server, Microsoft SQL Server, and Microsoft
SharePoint Server—has been the preferred software stack for small-to-medium size businesses
(SMBs) using Infor EAM solutions. Now, Infor and Microsoft have conducted benchmark testing
to demonstrate that SQL Server is an appropriate database platform for large, tier-1 enterprises
using Infor EAM Enterprise Edition running on Intel Xeon processors.

alerts. Many of these BI interfaces are delivered and consumed through the SharePoint portal
technology.
Additionally, SQL Server 2008 R2 comes with dynamic chart integration to Microsoft SharePoint
2010; self-service BI through Microsoft PowerPivot for Excel 2010; and Microsoft® Excel® 2010,
which supports “instant sort” on 100 million rows of data; backup compression; data
compression with UCS-2 Unicode support; and highly scalable complex event processing with
SQL Server StreamInsight. With Windows Workflow Foundation (WWF), Infor and Infor
customers gain industry-standard tools to deliver user interface page flows, human workflows,
business rule-driven workflows, document-centric workflows, composite workflows for service-
oriented apps, and even system management workflows.
1.3 Overview of Intel Xeon Processors Intel Xeon processors deliver advances in scalable performance and virtualization, in addition to
reliability, availability and serviceability (RAS), providing a robust foundation for enterprise
solutions. The combination of Intel Xeon processors and Microsoft software delivers a powerful
and responsive solution infrastructure for Infor EAM Enterprise Edition deployments.
In this benchmark study, the Intel Xeon processor 7500 series was used with SQL Server 2008 R2
as the database tier for Infor EAM Enterprise Edition. The Intel Xeon processor 5600 series was
used with the reporting server and an earlier version of the Intel Xeon 5000 series, the Intel
Xeon processor 5500 series, was used with the application servers.
Intel Xeon processor 7500 series delivers massive scalability―up to 8 sockets or more, with up
to 8 cores per socket, and up to 16 processing threads per processor and 2 terabytes of memory
capacity in an 8-socket configuration. Designed for large-scale deployments and mission-critical
applications, the Intel Xeon processor 7500 series delivers not only massive scalability and
performance, but also leading RAS capabilities. With the Intel Xeon processor 7500 series, more
than 20 new hardware-based RAS features have been introduced to help detect and correct
errors and prevent them from happening again. These new RAS features can be found
throughout the processor microarchitecture—across memory, CPU/socket, Intel QuickPath links,
and the I/O Hub—to further help strengthen system reliability.
The Intel Xeon processor 5600 series delivers enhanced, energy-efficient performance and is
ideally suited for a wide range of application deployments, especially with a high density of
servers. The Intel Xeon processor 5600 series offers intelligent performance by adjusting
performance and power usage in real-time to meet the requirements of a particular workload.
The processors also allow for manual adjustments for maximum flexibility. With the Intel Xeon
processor 5600 series, deployments will realize outstanding performance and reductions in
energy costs.

2 Benchmark Testing
In September and October of 2010, engineers from Infor and Microsoft worked together at the
Microsoft Solution Center (MSC) in Redmond, Washington, to confirm that SQL Server 2008 R2
can support enterprise-class deployments of Infor EAM, and to develop a hardware specification
capable of hosting up to 2,400 concurrent Infor EAM users. The tests were designed to emulate
actual business scenarios and transactions and to provide a realistic representation of
production infrastructure requirements.
Two sets of front-end manual reliability tests were run: a set of tests with a full hardware
configuration and a set of tests with two scaled-down hardware configurations.
The results of the benchmark testing with both hardware configurations showed that
transaction times varied little over the testing period. This shows that SQL Server 2008 R2 is an
appropriate choice for enterprise deployments of Infor EAM in scenarios that require the
application and database servers to run for extended periods of time without downtime.
2.1 The Benchmark Test Environment Infor EAM was deployed on six virtual servers, each capable of supporting up to 400 virtual
users. The database software, SQL Server 2008 R2, was deployed on one virtual server,
managing transactions for all users.

3 Summary
Engineers from Infor and Microsoft conducted benchmark testing to confirm SQL Server 2008 R2
as an appropriate database for tier-1 deployments of Infor EAM running on Intel Xeon processor
7500 series.
A first test ran for a continuous 120 hours with a 2,400 concurrent-user load. The test showed
consistent results for both the “page open” and “page save” transactions for the duration of the
test. This simulates real-world scenarios in which the application server and database server are
expected to run for extended periods of time without any downtime.
A second test used reduced load and scaled-down hardware, representing typical production
infrastructure requirements. The test also showed consistent results for the duration of the test.
Future tests are planned to explore additional SQL Server database configurations, such as SQL
Server database server clustering and database mirroring.
