Sun offers the most complete and scalable infrastructure solutions for network-scale computing. We're building our public cloud computing service on these infrastructure components, and are helping customers use them in building out their own cloud environments.
Sun Opens the Clouds
Some vendors offer closed cloud platforms that lock you in. Sun's open source philosophy and Java principles form the core of a strategy for providing interoperability and distributing applications across multiple cloud infrastructure components.
Sun combines the open systems and software to build a cloud, the architectural expertise to maximize cloud capabilities, and the technologies to take cloud computing to a higher level.
Responding to the community's demand for interoperability, Sun is pursuing its vision of open, interoperable clouds in four key areas:
Openv standards-based tools and APIs enable developers and architects to build agile services that can be deployed in the cloud
Systems
Compute, storage, and networking systems that interoperate and integrate with systems from other vendors.
|
Chip multi-threading and multi-core computing that enable ever-higher compute densities.
Professional services, network services, and value-added offerings from ISVs, OEM and channel partners, and systems integrators to understand requirements and identify opportunities to leverage the benefits of cloud computing.

Sun Technologies for the Cloud
Solaris, the most powerful and popular cloud operating system, now is available on Sun, Intel, IBM, HP and Dell systems
- Delivers the performance, stability and security your users and customers demand
- Has more available applications than any other open OS
Sun is one of the few companies able to address all the different kinds of cloud virtualization:
- Hypervisor (xVM Server)
- OS (Solaris Containers and Zones)
- Network (Crossbow)
- Storage (Solaris ZFS)
- Applications (GlassFish, Java CAPS)
From Network File System (NFS) to Dynamic System Domains, Chip Multi-Threading (CMT), and Solaris Containers, Sun has the experience and expertise to take virtualization to a new level.
Sun is leveraging the flexibility and accessibility of the cloud to enhance existing tools and create new technologies that deliver an improved developer experience.
- NetBeans, Sun's award-winning open source IDE
- Project Kenai, Sun's onramp for the connected developer cloud of tomorrow
- Project Speedway, a cloud service for developing, testing and tuning SPARC/Solaris applications

Sun is leading the open storage movement, which combines open source software with industry-standard system components to reduce storage costs by up to 90 %.
- Delivers breakthrough economics
- Provides massive capacities and extreme scalability without vendor lock-in
- Offers the flexibility to scale, reconfigure, or repurpose your infrastructure
Sun's acquisition of MySQL enables Sun, its ISV partners, and cloud service providers to create and deploy new data-fed, data-driven applications and services.
- MySQL is the "M" in the AMP software platform
- A foundation technology for Web applications
- Combines with OpenSolaris, GlassFish, Java, and NetBeans to create a powerful Cloud platform
- Can be used to build next-generation applications and new revenue streams without licensing restrictions
