Applications are driven by data—and their ability to scale and adapt depends on the database management system (DBMS) that drives them. That underlying DBMS must be able to process transactions quickly and reliably and, for large analytic tasks, ingest huge and diverse data sets with low latency.
Microsoft SQL Server is one such DBMS. In “Data Management Platform Consolidation with Enterprise Linux,” IDC explains why running SQL Server on Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® provides workload-optimized performance, streamlined consistency across modern IT environments, and newfound agility with container deployments.
Using real-world success stories as examples, this in-depth IDC whitepaper reveals how SQL Server and Red Hat Enterprise Linux is a high-performance combination for consolidating current-and new-generation applications and their respective data management stacks.
