Advantages
In database scenarios, Kunpeng servers feature high reliability and stability, provide multiple cores and multiple memory channels, and show advantages in AP application scenarios. Kunpeng servers can save investments for enterprises and provide better performance at the same cost. When single-instance deployment cannot fully utilize the CPU computing power, multi-instance deployment on Kunpeng servers is more advantageous.
Kunpeng servers have the following features:
- Multi-core architecture. High computing power of up to 256 cores enables database parallel processing. The advantage over x86 servers is more evident in online analytical processing (OLAP).
- Multiple memory channels. 16 memory channels improve the memory bandwidth and accelerate the processing of a large amount of data.
- When single-instance deployment cannot fully utilize the CPU computing power, multi-instance deployment on Kunpeng servers is more advantageous.
High Performance
Kunpeng servers improve the parallel computing level and fully utilize the multi-core capabilities of Kunpeng processors.
- Kunpeng server (powered by two Kunpeng 920 5250 processors) vs. Mainstream high-end 2-socket servers (20 cores, 2.3 GHz) in the industry
- Kunpeng server (powered by two Kunpeng 920 5220 processors) vs. Mainstream mid-range 2-socket servers (16 cores, 2.3 GHz) in the industry
High Security and Reliability
The hardware of the Kunpeng computing platform is designed based on high reliability and strict quality standards.
- The processors have built-in hardware accelerator, which provides higher security.
- The service performance loss caused by encryption is less than 10%.
Open Ecosystem
Kunpeng has a mature big data ecosystem in database scenarios. It supports the following components:
- Mainstream open-source databases, such as MySQL, MariaDB, Percona, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Greenplum, and Milvus.
- Mainstream commercial databases, such as GBase, Dameng, Kingbase, Shentong Data, and GaussDB, in China
