Configurations ssed for Performance, Scalability, and Reliability Testing

The following is the configuration used for performing the Performance, Scalability and Reliability (PSR) tests and we recommend similar configuration for your environment. The PSR test was performed in:

• 3rd Generation Intel® Xeon® Platinum 8370C (Ice Lake) processor with speed of up to 3.5 GHz.

• Windows 2019 Server Data Center edition for Mobile Operator Server and Database Server.

• SQL Server 2019 Enterprise Edition.

• All Solid-State Drives (SSD) for Operating System Disks.

• Solid-State Drives for the Data, Log, and TempDB files with recommended IOPS and Throughput.

  All the Data, Log and TempDB files should be in separate drives and the TempDB was split into multiple files as per SQL Server Recommendations.

  • Database MDF files are kept in a drive with size 1024 GB with 5000 IOPS and 200 Throughput.

  • Database LDF files are kept in a drive with size 256 GB with 1100 IOPS and 125 Throughput.

• Mobile Operator OS Drive with size 127 GB with 500 IOPS and 100 Throughput.

• The Database Server and Mobile Operator Server supports required IOPS and Throughput which is cumulative of the overall IOPS and Throughput of the individual disks attached to the Server.

• A good network connectivity between the Mobile Operator components like Mobile Operator Server, Database Server, Management Center, and SSRS Reports.

  As per internal PSR tests, we see minimum of 300 Mbps connectivity for the minimal latency and high performance. Depending on your workload, these performance number may vary. Therefore, you must monitor the network usage on the server boxes and configure accordingly.

• Followed all the best practices for configuring SQL Server and TempDB.
