Company Profile

Sun Microsystems is a global supplier of network computing solutions that power the world's markets. With a proven history of sharing, building communities, and innovation, we help create opportunities — both social and economic — around the world.

At Sun, our focus is entirely on network computing, a free and open source software model, eco responsible solutions, and solving our customers' most critical challenges through a whole-systems approach. We share our ideas, expertise, and technology to eliminate obstacles to access and participation, and to enable people everywhere to interact — safely, securely, and easily.

Our fiscal year 2007 began July 1, 2006 and ended June 30, 2007. Sun is ranked #187 on the 2007 Fortune 500.

Employees

Our employees are the most important and valuable asset we have. It's their pursuit of innovation and excellence that enables our business success. Their broad and deep commitment to creating positive social and environmental changes in our business, our products, and our communities drives us continually forward. At the end of fiscal 2007, Sun had approximately 34,000 employees.

Products and Services

Sun designs and creates solutions to our customers' biggest, most important problems. And we seek to share our solutions to grow communities, increase access to the network, and create new market opportunities.

Each year, we invest approximately $2 billion in research and development (R&D), with the goal of fueling innovation, achieving seamless integration, and providing unsurpassed system performance.

With our systems approach, Sun is able to deliver greater value to customers. We combine software, systems, storage, and services to provide an end-to-end IT infrastructure — not unconnected components or disjointed pieces of an IT puzzle. Our software runs on other companies' hardware. Our storage attaches to others' platforms. Our systems are available on three chip platforms and support three operating systems. And across it all, our services keep everything up and running.

Global Reach

Sun conducts business in more than 100 countries and has engineering, manufacturing, and R&D operations worldwide.

Open Communities

We believe that great ideas need not be proprietary. That's why we share our ideas, technology, and opportunities: to foster greater participation, spark innovation, and enable markets to expand and thrive. We build, support, and enable communities through our support of open source and open standards as well as through other community programs. We do this because we believe that when people are free to assemble, participate, and create, it's good for them, good for us, and good for everyone.
