Servers

Sun Fire x64 servers
Equipped with Intel Xeon and AMD Opteron processors for outstanding price/performance, these energy-efficient powerhouses have set over 110 world records for performance and speed. Sun Fire x64 servers are the way to go for a remarkable combination of speed and energy-efficiency.

Servers with CoolThreads Technology
Sun servers with CoolThreads technology have set over 70 world records for performance and scalability—yet they use 4x less power and space than comparable x86-based servers. Servers with CoolThreads technology offer blazing performance for all web-tier and application-tier environments. California startups get an added benefit because of the low power consumption, Pacific Gas & Electric offers a rebate to users of the Sun Fire T1000 or T2000—a program we hope to see spread throughout the U.S.

When you're starting up, it's tough to get access to the technology you need to deliver services on any type of scale—until now. Sun Startup Essentials was a great resource for us, enabling us to buy three Sun Fire x4500 systems for about the price of just one system, and providing resources to help us quickly build and deploy cost efficient solutions for our customers.
