Formerly, when I have had to decide either server isolation or server consolidation to different platform, there could use of TPC-C (if they exists) or SPECInt_Rate_2006 (Mostly available). That’s however very cumbersome to check, verify, design and decide on optimal performance based on our tight budget.
I have chance to test an Oracle Software EMCC 13c, and found that it’d pretty be valuable source to reference especially it help speed up my process of how to isolate or consolidate our server. Here is what a tool help summarize based upon SPECInt_Rate_2006 on our test environment. (This might be flexible to adjust based on your experience and your own benchmark)
Apart from CPU, you can additionally see your memory utilization and disk storage perspective including IOPs and Throughput.
It could save my day.
