What is the performance and scalability impact of upgrading to MicroStrategy 8?
MicroStrategy 8 inherits and improves upon all the scalability, caching, scheduling, clustering, security and other enterprise class-IT features of the MicroStrategy 7i platform. In addition, features such as asymmetrical clustering, improved memory management and high throughput document bursting have been added to the platform. Customers should experience comparable performance and scalability levels for existing applications after upgrades (exact performance depends upon hardware, usage patterns and other factors). Sizing and performance for new applications follows previously published guidelines.
