The revolutionary Sun Blade 6000 modular system is designed to support highly capable blades that deliver more compute, memory and I/O capacity than traditional blades and rackmount servers. This platform provides maximal performance with optimal cooling, space and power efficiency. In combination with the Sun Blade Virtualized NEM, it is ideal for consolidation and virtualizing a wide variety applications from the web to the back office on blades based on UltraSPARC, AMD Opteron and Intel Xeon processors.
