B2B Integrator Benchmark on Softlayer and Oracle 12c
Date : 2015-04
As the speed of computer hardware improves and new versions of software become available, we inevitably want to know how much our applications would benefits from those improvements. The way we run our software is also changing with the increased popularity of cloud computing providers such as Softlayer and Amazon. The goal of this white paper is to measure the throughput that IBM B2B Integrator can achieve using the 5.2.5 release of B2Bi and Oracle 12c on recent hardware, hosted in a Softlayer environment.
The benchmark focuses on SFTP transfers, X12 file management and Sterling File Gateway routing. You can download the full report by following this link:

B2B Integrator Benchmark of AS2 request using DB2 PureScale
Date : 2014-08
The performance of B2B Integrator heavily depends on the performance of the underlying database. Improving the performance of the database is one of the easiest ways to scale the application. In this article, we demonstrate that we can achieve positive scaling of B2Bi capacity by leveraging DB2 pureScale. We also share a few tools and techniques we used to monitor and tune the application.

Sterling File Gateway Transfer Speed
Date : 2009
To demonstrate the ability of Sterling File Gateway to help securely and consistently transfer and process high volumes of inbound and outbound files, IBM commissioned a performance benchmark study at the IBM Innovation Center. The testing scenarios were modeled from actual customer requirements, including a premier financial services institution and a top global manufacturer. File sizes, volumes, transfer protocols and payload processing simulated customers’ real-world business requirements.
