Oracle and Sun can help you cut the cost and complexity of enterprise grid computing. Oracle Database 11g and Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) for Sun Servers and Storage combine the best of two industry leaders to maximize the benefits of grid computing and dramatically increase performance, scalability, and security.
At A Glance
- Scale up or scale out your enterprise grid on demand using powerful, eco-efficient Sun systems
- Get unbeatable fault tolerance, performance and database scalability with Oracle RAC
- Speed deployment and reduce risk with Sun reference architectures
- Get unmatched security, reliability, and availability with Solaris 10 and Sun systems
- Maximize energy and space efficiency with Sun CoolThreads and x64 servers
- Minimize hardware or software downtime with Solaris Cluster
Speed Implementation. Minimize Deployment Risk.
Oracle Knows Grid Computing
Oracle offers the most complete and field-proven portfolio of industry leading grid computing solutions, from the Web tier to database, servers, and storage.
Oracle Grid Products
Oracle Database 11g
Tested and Validated Sun Reference Architectures
Sun's Reference Architecture for Oracle 11g Grid, leverages thousands of engineering
hours jointly invested by Sun and Oracle and is based on actual customer experience. It fully exploits the indisputable performance advantages of the Solaris OS for database services and world-record benchmark results. Running on Sun SPARC Enterprise servers, and coupled with Solaris Cluster software and Sun StorageTek QFS software, this reference architecture speeds implementation and minimizes deployment risk.

Breadth of Servers for Oracle Databases
Sun's comprehensive portfolio of SPARC 64, SPARC T2 Plus, and x64 based servers provide you with choice and flexibility to use the optimum architecture for your specific needs.
- Sun Fire x64 servers offer outstanding price/performance for Oracle Database workloads, and include the most space- and energy-efficient 4-socket, 2RU x64 server among tier-one vendors.
- Sun SPARC Enterprise servers with CoolThreads technology deliver breakthrough performance with dramatic space, power, and reduced CPU-based licensing costs.
- Sun SPARC Enterprise M-Series servers can be used for effective diagonal scaling (vertically scaling nodes in a cluster). Adding CPUs and boards to M-Series servers produces near linear scalability at higher utilization rates than other architectures.
Enterprise-Ready Solaris 10 OS
The Solaris 10 OS delivers the performance, stability, and security enterprise grid environments demand. The Solaris OS is capable of vertical and horizontal scaling and offers a broad hardware platform, which are very important capabilities for enterprise grid solutions.
Oracle's Maximum Availability Architecture (MAA) for Sun
Designed to remove the complexity of creating an optimal high availability architecture, the Oracle Maximum Availability Architecture (MAA) is a best practice blueprint which explains how to transition an Oracle E-Business Suite application running on a single instance database to an MAA configuration on a clustered system on the Solaris OS.
