Hello,
I'm about to upgrade to the latest networker and I need to upgrade my
hardware as well, so - what better time to ask :
What's the best platform on which to run networker server these days.
Clients are HP-UX Solaris, AIX, Linux, windows - with oracle, lotus notes,
exchange, sql-server.
Define "best" anyway you like - best performance, best price-performance,
etc., etc..
My vote goes to Solaris 10/Sparc on a T5x20 platform (just to be on
the safe side, I just ordered a 6-core T1000 with a dual 4Gb Emulex
HBA). Stability. Better hardware support (Leadville's FC configuration
is trivial). Performance (built in 10Ge ports).
With x86 the choise of OS is not great.
I usually like to go with the primary development platform, but I don't
know what that is for networker these days. Do you?
Thanks,
