Once in a while, a single innovation is so dramatic, it affects everything around it, for both customers and competitors. The Solaris 10 Operating System, Sun SPARC processors, and the Sun UltraSPARC processors are perfect examples. Now, we've combined all three to give Sun customers a distinct advantage over their competitors. Introducing the Sun SPARC Enterprise Server family.
Scalable, Mainframe-class Servers for Mission Critical Computing
Sun's continued innovation in enterprise computing is here with the quad-core SPARC64 VII processor: mainframe-class, 24x7 mission-critical servers for your computing needs. Offering scalability, sophisticated RAS features, for large workloads, databases, BIDW, and OLTP.
Sun SPARC Enterprise servers with CoolThreads technology deliver breakthrough performance with dramatic space and power efficiency. Get the highest throughput with up to 128 simultaneous compute threads, 16 cores in 1RU or 2RU.
What's New - Solaris 8 Containers and Solaris 9 Containers Software
The Solaris 8 Containers or Solaris 9 Containers software and services accelerate the migration of application environments currently using Solaris 8 or Solaris 9 to new systems running Solaris 10. Download at no cost here.
Interview with Gary Combs on Virtualization in Sun SPARC Enterprise Servers
Sun and Fujitsu bring you the next generation Sun SPARC Enterprise servers where scalable, mainframe reliability meets Solaris 10, the world's most advanced OS.
ISVs/Customers Endorse New Sun SPARC Enterprise Servers
"Sun's new quad-core SPARC Enterprise M Series servers provide HPCVL with better system utilization, a large memory footprint, and 512 compute threads per system in a multi-threaded shared memory environment, which allows our researchers the scalability they need to examine problems in even finer detail," said Dr. Ken Edgecombe, Executive Director at High Performance Computing Virtual Laboratory. "This provides us a huge competitive advantage in many research areas, such as mathematical genomics, computational fluid dynamics, and drug design."
New Sun SPARC Enterprise systems are the ideal choice for consolidating and virtualizing web tier environments, smaller databases and large-scale enterprise applications alike. Designed with unique built in mainframe-class virtualization capabilities, the Sun SPARC Enterprise systems allow you to run thousands of partitions across your datacenter, for complete isolation and control, and not pay a penny extra — HP and IBM systems can't offer this level of partitioning.
Sun and Fujitsu continuing to build on our 20-year collaborative relationship and our commitment to the SPARC roadmap designed to re-shape the Enterprise computing market.

Legal Notice: SPARC Enterprise Servers with their specific models T1000, T2000, T5120, T5220, T5140, T5240, M4000, M5000, M8000 and M9000 are the result of the Sun and Fujitsu joint co-operation. SPARC Enterprise Servers are sold and marketed from Sun Microsystems, Fujitsu Ltd. and Fujitsu Siemens Computers under the respective company brands but are technically and functionally identical in construction and therefore 100% compatible in hardware and firmware.
Disclaimer: Sun SPARC Enterprise T1000/T2000 servers are equivalent to Sun Fire T1000/T2000 servers that contain the same system configurations.
