6 Benefits of SQL Server SQL Server is a comprehensive, integrated, and enterprise-ready data-management software solution. It provides a reliable, cost-effective, low-maintenance database framework for CSC s Integral that can support the largest and most process-intensive deployments. Hundreds of enterprises are currently running terabyte and larger transactional databases on SQL Server. Running CSC s Integral on SQL Server provides customers with many benefits: Scalability and performance features SQL Server includes features that can help CSC customers scale and maintain performance as their businesses grow. Six nines (. percent) uptime availability CSC customers can protect their mission-critical databases from downtime and data loss with six nines uptime availability., Faster to deploy On average, SQL Server database administrators (DBAs) can install and configure new database in. hours, while the largest competitor s DBAs can take hours. Lower hardware cost SQL Server can run on standard commodity server hardware, which can dramatically lower the total cost of ownership (TCO) for customers. Lower software costs The list price of SQL Server is a third of the largest competitors; in addition, SQL Server includes major database-related features, such as high availability; remote disaster recovery; partitioning; data compression; transparent data encryption; spatial; master data management; complex event processing; extract, transform, and load (ETL); online analytical processing (OLAP); data mining; reporting services; and self-service business intelligence (BI) tools. Competitors licensing models add costs for options and add-ins. Simpler systems management and lower staffing costs SQL Server database administrators can typically manage four times as many physical databases as a competitor s DBAs, leading to an estimated annual savings of $, in administrative costs per database, a percent difference in annual cost of administration per database Benchmark Testing Results: CSC s Integral Life Insurance Solution and Microsoft SQL Server
7 Fewer security vulnerabilities Since, SQL Server has recorded the fewest reported vulnerabilities of any of the major database platforms as compiled by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). With SQL Server, CSC customers can save with reduced licensing, hardware, administration, and support fees, which translate into substantially lower costs over the life of the system. For more information about SQL Server, visit Benchmark Testing Overview As part of their strategic alliance, CSC and Microsoft ran real-world benchmarking tests at the Microsoft Platform Adoption Center (PAC) in Redmond, Washington, to evaluate and optimize the performance and scalability of CSC s Integral life insurance component running on SQL Server and Windows Server R Enterprise. The benchmarking tests aimed to simulate the typical daily activities of agents at a large insurer, with up to, concurrent users running against a database of million policies. This was achieved on five application and a database server, all industry-standard with a total list price of less than $,, and industry-standard storage with a list price of $, a compelling scenario for customers. A variety of tests were performed, including: Single server tests These tests investigated the performance of Integral on a single application server with various numbers of virtual users. Note that based on the test methodology, virtual users are equivalent to actual concurrent users. Multiple server tests These tests looked at the horizontal scalability of the solution by starting with one application server with concurrent users, and adding application, each with concurrent users, up to five application with, concurrent users. A test was then run with five application and, concurrent users, representing a very large insurance company.

These customers want assurances that as their organizations grow and the number of policies increases, their database software can maintain the performance they rely on. CSC has worked with Microsoft to develop insurance solutions that combine CSC software with Microsoft products and technologies. Benchmark testing and product optimizations are part of this joint effort. The CSC and Microsoft benchmark tests were designed to simulate the real-world usage patterns of large insurance customers. The test results were impressive. In the single application server test with concurrent users, the measured throughput was business transactions per minute. For the five application with, concurrent users test, the total throughput was, business transactions per minute. SQL Server Enterprise performed remarkably well in the tests; for the five application with, concurrent users, SQL Server processed an average, batch request per second (and a maximum of, batch request per second), with an average of less than percent CPU utilization. These results clearly confirm that CSC s Integral running on SQL Server and Windows Server can easily support at least, concurrent users. The results also show that the system is highly scalable, with near-linear scalability as the number of application and the number of concurrent users increase. CSC customers can select SQL Server as the database platform for large and complex deployments of CSC s Integral life insurance component with confidence.
