How to Improve Your Java-Based Performance Results

Asaf Ezra

Co-Founder and GM, Intel Granulate

Today, Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization, a company providing autonomous real-time computing workload optimization and cost reduction solutions, announced a collaboration with Intel to show new Java-based performance results, with significant improvement of 2nd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors using Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization’s real-time continuous optimization software solution.

Key highlights of the new Java-based benchmark completed by Intel show the following results when running with Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization on 2nd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors:

  • 12.3% improvement in throughput Java ops per second
  • 13.7% improvement in the throughput with SLA Java ops per second

Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization is also currently working with Intel to test Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization’s software on the next generation of Intel Xeon Scalable processors.

The Java-based benchmark allows vendors to demonstrate Java-based business software performance so businesses can evaluate the way their software will run in real-world environments. The benchmark provides two measures of performance: throughput operations per second metric which provides a measure of overall transactional throughput, and the throughput with SLA (Service Level Agreement) operations per second which provides the measure of interactive responsiveness.  

The Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization solution automatically learns the application’s specific resource usage patterns and data flow, identifies contended resources and bottlenecks, and tailors OS-level scheduling and prioritization decisions to improve infrastructure and application performance.

The collaboration began when Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization participated in Intel’s flagship program, the Intel Ignite Growth Accelerator, which includes technical collaboration with Intel and further focused development by Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization to show increased performance with Intel processors and expanded collaboration with newer products.

“The Ignite Growth Accelerator program helped develop the relationship between the companies, and achieving these Java-based benchmark results on Intel processors was made possible through a deep integration which would not have been possible otherwise,” said Asaf Ezra, co-founder and CEO of Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization.

Following the launch of Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization’s computing workload optimization solution, Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization released these benchmark results reflecting industry-leading Java-based throughput performance on Intel’s 2nd Gen Xeon Scalable processors. After demonstrating in an Intel lab that Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization’s solution can improve performance for applications, Intel and Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization completed a collaboration agreement aligning their customer technical teams and sales teams to bring real-time continuous optimization to joint customers.

“We have seen what Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization’s optimization software can do in benchmarks and production environments and look forward to introducing Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization to enhance customer and end-user experiences that may have the opportunity to receive the significant Intel processor performance improvements experienced by some of Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization’s customers, all with no code changes,” said Ron Whitfield, Sales Director of Intel’s Data Center Group. “Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization is offering customers the potential for increased performance with Intel Xeon processors deploying on Intel Architecture in the cloud and on-premise.”

Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization was among the first companies accepted into Intel Ignite’s start-up accelerator program, which supports the growth of innovative technology companies. Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization is now accepting customer requests for workload assessments, which can be completed in under a day, to determine if they can take advantage of these new performance improvements optimized for the Intel Xeon Scalable platform as shown in these benchmarks and already experienced by some of Intel Tiber App-Level Optimization’s customers.
