SunSpectrum Support

If you opt out of a Sun System Pack, choose Sun Spectrum Support - a portfolio of Service Plans for systems, storage, and software that focuses on delivering proven expertise, and responsive, consistent service quality, in order to achieve high availability in your IT infrastructure.

  • Pick the Service Plan for your Sun SPARC Enterprise T5240 Server that gives you the right level of hardware service coverage and operating system (OS) support.
  • For integrated hardware and Solaris OS support, opt for a Sun System Plan for the Solaris OS
  • If you need OS support only, purchase a Solaris 10 subscription, which entitles you to the latest Solaris Updates, Solaris Named Releases, Software Updates, and other Sun support.

Consolidation and Virtualization Expertise

Sun's virtualization and consolidation solutions are helping hundreds of customers simplify their disconnected and disparate IT environments – and in turn, achieve greater economies of scale while reducing the ecological impact. By virtualizing and consolidating to the Sun platform, customers have reduced their IT costs by as much as $2M/year, achieved 99.99+% availability, and more than doubled their application performance.

Eco-friendly Services

Sun Eco Services Suite provides a complete portfolio of eco-related services designed to establish a baseline for existing conditions, identify areas of improvement and provide plans for optimizing energy usage, cooling and general environmental conditions. Sun Eco Services offer a technical evaluation of datacenter energy usage, cooling capacity, air distribution and other environmental factors that can impact both operational costs and reliable service.

Solaris 10 OS Adoption
