A52: In SPECjEnterprise2010, a significant amount of functionality has been incorporated into the application server layer (e.g., servlets, JSPs, JMS). As a result, the influence of the database relative to the application server has been reduced somewhat. In addition, the scaling of the database has been increased, which results in a more realistic configuration with reduced table/row contention. The database continues to be a key component of the benchmark, however, since it is representative of a typical Java EE application. Because of this fact, database configuration and tuning will continue to be very important for performance.
