Do you have any numbers for SQL Azure?

I agree with you Paul, TPC-E should be the standard as it closely fits the world of virtualization *history is repeating itself*

On the contrary Hal, I feel the TPC-C is the benchmark that should be discontinued, not the TCP-E. Since Microsoft is a full member of the TPC, it is time to encourage The Council to obsolete the C benchmark!!

And yet, because only SQL Server has adopted TPC-E, I keep scanning the TPC news for an indication it is being discontinued. I suppose at the moment it survives because the hardware companies can use it to differentiate their systems without playing in the database wars. But there is no sign of energy. In fact, I don't see much energy in anything the TPC is doing any more.
