Phase 1: Hardware Consolidation in Northern California.

Sun Fire/ Sun SPARC Enterprise T1000 servers triple performance, while cutting power and space consumption by 3X.

88% sq. ft. compression in Santa Clara facility due to Hardware Consolidation.

Sun Fire/Sun SPARC Enterprise T1000 servers consume nearly 2.5x less power than Dell PowerEdge 2850, with 2x greater performance and nearly 5X better performance/watt Use 1/2 the space of the Dell / SuSE Linux.

Over 60% utility cost reduction in Santa Clara facility

Sun Fire/Sun SPARC Enterprise T1000 server uses >3x less power, delivers 14% greater performance and 3.5X better performance/watt than the 2-socket, 4 core IBM System x3650 (3.0GHz Xeon 5160 "WoodCrest" processor). Uses 1/2 the space of the IBM / Red Hat Linux solution

Decommissioned >5,000 server, switch and storage devices worldwide.

Sun SPARC Enterprise T2000 servers triple throughput, while cutting power and space consumption in half.

- Increased storage capacity by 244% storage capacity despite deploying 70% fewer disk arrays.
- Moved from 738 storage devices to 225 storage devices

Sun SPARC Enterprise T2000 systems deliver the best level of datacenter efficiency as measured by the SWaP metric.

- Increased compute power by 456%.
- Moved from 2,177 servers, 550 racks, 2.2MW of power/cooling to 1,240 servers, 65 racks, 500kw power.

Sun Ray clients use less power than a night light - (approx. 4 watts) - less than 1/20th of a typical PC (~80 watts).

Since we completed the consolidation in Sept. 2006 through the end of our fiscal year 2007 (June 30), we saved on average 61% on our utility bills, or $864,000 (~$96,000/month) on power bills. (half= equipment, half=back-end) $432k = just compute power

Sun x64 systems save customers up to 60% in power and cooling while delivering better price/performance

Cut carbon emissions by more than 3,227 metric tons in Santa Clara facility datacenter from our hardware consolidation.

Sun Fire X4600 M2 servers (8 processor config) uses 1/2 the power of four 1U 2-processor servers at 0% utilization. For applications that can use either a single Sun Fire X4600 server with 8-processors or 4 1U 2-processor servers, the Sun Fire X4600 M2 server offers better power efficiency.

Phase 2: Moving to Santa Clara Energy Efficient Datacenter.

- Project Blackbox has 40% lower cost cooling, packs the same compute power in 1/4 the space, and reduces C02 emissions by 213 metric tons annually (compared to a traditional datacenter).
- Sun will take back any Project Blackbox unit (and its content) we sell, anywhere in the world and reuse, recycle or dispose of it in an environmentally responsible way.

62% reduction in footprint (Phase 2): 202,000 sq. ft ->76,000 sq. ft. (152->14 rooms) in Santa Clara facility.

Disk is 8x cost to acquire, power & cool than automated tape.

Avoided $3M in construction costs by using high density POD designs that don't require a raised floor.

Depending on configuration, Sun StorageTek SL8500 reduces floor space by 25-50% and energy requirements by as little as 40% that of other libraries.

Efficient datacenter designed enabled Sun to increase the temp. at its Santa Clara facility datacenter by 4 degrees (fr/ 68->72 degrees) w/o impacting equipment reliability or performance. Each degree saves 4% in cooling costs.

NEW Sun Eco Ready Kits and virtualization technology have saved customers >80% in power & heat; delivered 4.5x better performance than HP x86 servers, 10x better price/perf., 2X more processing capacity; reduce operating costs 75%.

Entire datacenter build out in 12 months.

NEW Sun Reference Architecture for Structured and Unstructured Data supports >1 PB of data, savings $835K/year in electricity costs and saving 4,800 tons of CO2 emissions per year.

- Received nearly $1 million in rebates & awards, including $800,000 for Santa Clara facility product/design choices to cool datacenter.
- Cut carbon emissions by more than 870 metric tons.
- Sun's entire Northern California efforts reduced carbon emissions by more than 4,100 metric tons annually for Phase 1 & 2).

PG&E offers Sun customers between $700-$1,000 per server when they replace inefficient servers with the Sun Fire / Sun SPARC Enterprise T1000 and T2000 servers.
