Microsoft is seeking candidates to test Beta 2 of its 64-bit SQL Server 2000 Enterprise database which is being optimized for Intel Itanium 2 hardware platform launched on Monday.
"This means it's been performance-tested with [Itanium 2] chips," said Sheryl Tullis, product manager for SQL Server, in Redmond, Wash. The 64-bit architecture of the database means it will offer better memory throughput and faster I/O, she said.
