Adaptive Server implements the Sybase Virtual Server Architecture™, which enables it to take advantage of the parallel processing feature of symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) systems. You can run Adaptive Server as a single process or as multiple, cooperating processes, depending on the number of CPUs available and the demands placed on the server machine. This chapter describes:
The target machine architecture for the SMP Adaptive Server
Adaptive Server architecture for SMP environments
Adaptive Server task management in the SMP environment
Managing multiple engines
For information on application design for SMP systems, see Chapter 20, “Managing Multiprocessor Servers,” in the Performance and Tuning Guide: Basics.
