Objective performance benchmarks. The Microsoft DNA architecture has always turned in stunning marks for the sub-40k tpmC range for price/performance. (Roger Sessions argues that over 94% of all applications fall into the sub-40k tpmC category.) As of 2/17/2000, a Compaq cluster running Windows 2000 (using COM+ for transaction management) and SQL Server 2000 turns in the best TCP-C performance in history, beating the next closest competitor (a RISC System 6000 Enterprise Server S80 running Oracle 8i) by over 67%, at just over half the cost. | |

This page is a riduculous argument that compares EJB to DCOM, intead of COM+ as a whole. There are links to two good articles by Ed Roman, et al, that actually compare EJB to COM+. | |
