World-Class Performance
Powered by the Intel Xeon 5500 Series of processors, Sun's latest x64 systems combine innovative design with industry-leading performance - to set new benchmark records. The Solaris OS detects bottlenecks and helps to increase throughput, responsiveness and overall performance.
Energy Efficient
While front-to-back cooling airflow saves on energy, the Solaris OS takes maximum advantage of the Intel Xeon power management capabilities - improving energy efficiency even further.
|
Extreme Scalability
Sun's new range of x64 systems features a common, ultra-dense memory architecture - across all systems - plus high performance InfiniBand switching, for rapid scaling to meet changing demands.
|
Virtualisation
Sun's x64 systems can help you to consolidate multiple environments into a single server - to reduce costs, improve systems management, strengthen security and make your computing infrastructure more resilient.
|
Simplified System Management
Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) handles overall server management and integrates easily with leading system management platforms - such as Sun xVM Ops Center - and popular third-party monitoring frameworks.
|
Unmatched Density
Sun's latest x64 systems with Intel Xeon processors support up to 24 CPU cores, 256 GB of memory, 1 TB of disk storage, 4 Gigabit Ethernet ports and 6 PCI-Express slots - for high density, expandability and large storage capacity in just one rack unit.
