Benchmarks for Enhanced Network Performance: Hands-On Testing of Operating System Solutions to Identify the Optimal Application Server Platform for the Graduate School of Business and Public Policy

With the release of next generation operating systems, network managers face the prospect of upgrading their systems based on the assumption that newer is better. The Graduate School of Business and Public Policy is in the process of upgrading their network application server and one of the most important decisions to be made is which Server Operating System to use. Based on hands-on benchmark tests and analysis we aim to assist the GSBPP by providing benchmark metrics and a recommendation of which Operating Systems will provide the best solution.
