Sun's Competitive Advantage - Breakthrough Technology Without Compromise

Sun Fire servers with CoolThreads technology set the industry standard for the new data center requirements: energy and space efficient, fast, secure. This breakthrough discovery delivers up to 3x the performance using as little as 1/2 the energy, and in a smaller footprint vs. comparable systems, making it the world's first eco-responsible server. And the Sun Fire T1000/T2000 and Sun SPARC Enterprise T1000/T2000 servers deliver up to 15x the throughput of UltraSPARC IIIi based systems.

Consequently, the Sun Fire T2000 or Sun SPARC Enterprise T2000 servers make a great consolidation platform, delivering energy, space, and cooling savings; greater throughput to do more with fewer servers; and improved management and security capabilities. And with the Sun UAP consolidation option, customers who purchase a Sun Fire T2000 or Sun SPARC Enterprise T2000 server can also benefit from lower upfront hardware acquisition costs through trade-up allowances of up to 15%.

No other platform provides the innovation and ongoing investment protection of Sun. With 100-percent binary compatibility, customers can benefit from seamless transitions to the latest technology while preserving application investments.

Sun UAP standard trade-up offers are available on an ongoing basis, unlike competitors who only offer time-bound promotions for a limited number of products, and can require the purchase of costly migration services.
