Letter from Jonathan Schwartz
President and Chief Executive Officer
Welcome to Sun's award-winning Executive Briefing Center. Whether
you're visiting us in the United States at our Menlo Park,
California center; or in Europe at Sun's
Linlithgow, Scotland location, you will have the opportunity to
meet with some of our best talent. Like our other guests, you will
get an infusion of fresh ideas, deep knowledge and a broad range
of experience from the right people who can help your business
compete in the expanding global network.
Sun develops many of the technologies that support the ever-
expanding global network and the emerging, evolving Web economy.
With millions of people connecting to the network each week, I am
excited about the future. Here is how we see the industry:
- The global market is growing: Global IT spending continues to
increase.
- Choice matters: Our open servers run all major operating
systems and we're also bringing open source economics to the
storage and networking arenas. Our free and open software—Solaris,
Java, MySQL, NetBeans, GlassFish and OpenOffice—is
generally available on literally hundreds of systems platforms, as
well.
- Innovation matters: Sun has continually invested in R&D
to ensure that our entire range of products, from servers and
storage to software and services, provide breakthrough solutions
for our clients.
- Execution matters: Sun has products available today that are
unparalleled in the market and can help today's enterprise become
more efficient and more competitive.
Sun has been entrenched in the technology business for years,
working in close partnership with you, your peers and your
predecessors. We have deep insight into the technology
challenges, opportunities and priorities facing your company, and
we will continue to innovate systems and services to help you meet
them. As always, we are committed to an open, productive dialogue
with you about how Sun's technology solutions can be applied to
your unique business situation. I encourage you to schedule a
visit to our Executive Briefing Center by contacting your Sun
