TPC (Transaction Processing Council)

The Transaction Processing Performance Council (TPC) is an organization that develops standard benchmarks to measure and compare the performance of computer systems, especially those used for processing large volumes of transactions like database systems. By providing these standardized tests, TPC helps businesses and analysts understand how different systems perform under consistent conditions, ensuring fair and meaningful comparisons. Their benchmarks evaluate aspects such as speed, efficiency, and capacity, assisting organizations in selecting suitable hardware and software for demanding data processing tasks.
