Sun's Open Storage Program provides customers with expanded
choice of supported third-party storage arrays with Solaris Cluster.
Customers who have invested in non-Sun storage infrastructure and
want to use Solaris Cluster for application availability, can do so
easily and seamlessly. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the new
possibilities.
No more compromises on availability and quality
Increased choice in configurations and storage arrays
And, support for your entire high availability solution
No More Compromises
Businesses today demand application availability with investment
protection in their Data Center infrastructure. This program
directly supports this requirement. The program leverages the
methodology and tools that have made deployments of Solaris Cluster
with Sun Storage products successful. It also ensures that the
quality of the overall cluster solution remain high, so it delivers
customers' mission critical applications.
Increased Choice
In today's diverse IT climate, customers want increased choice
in configurations without compromising availability and quality.
This program directly offers this preference. Sun works with other
storage systems vendors to self-certify their arrays for Solaris
Cluster software. The qualification process is as rigorous as Sun's
own methods of validating Sun Cluster 3 with Sun StorEdge. The
joint effort allows customers to receive end-to-end High
Availability for their mission-critical applications on a diverse
choice of storage platforms.
Support for Entire Solution
In addition to ensuring seamless interoperability of third party
storage products with Solaris Cluster, this program delivers
cooperative -- no finger pointing -- support customers will enjoy.
Both parties test configurations. Both parties respond to support
calls. This level of quality and support is not offered by
competing products.
The Solaris Cluster Open Storage Program increases
choice and reduces risk by enabling well-tested deployments on
storage arrays from leading vendors. »More
