Sun Servers for Business Applications

Your enterprise apps need more performance to support more users, data, and functionality. But you also need to deliver it on a smaller budget, a smaller footprint, and with reduced power and cooling requirements. With the the new Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 server, you can make your enterprise applications scream, with the best price/performance in its class.


Introducing the Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 Server!

The four-socket, UltraSPARC T2 Plus processor-based Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 server out-scales systems from other vendors, delivering exceptional throughput for mid-range enterprise applications, including CRM, email, and OLTP databases. For the first time, you get the scalability and reliability of traditional mid-range systems combined with the breakthrough performance, eco-efficiency, and cost-effectiveness of Sun's proven open-source chip multi-threading (CMT) architecture. Sun's unique CMT processor executes multiple tasks simultaneously, improving throughput performance without increasing heat production or power consumption — to help you do more, with less.


World-Record Performance for Oracle's Siebel CRM

Sun's CoolThreads technology-based servers have consistently delivered industry-leading benchmark performance for Oracle's Siebel CRM. And the new Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 server delivers yet again. All tiers of the Siebel CRM Release 8.0 architecture can run on the UltraSPARC T2 Plus chip multithreading (CMT) processor. The multithreading capability of the processor allows each active Object Manager (OM) process to run hundreds of Light Weight Processes (LWP), thus utilizing the available resources extremely effectively.

The new benchmark ran 14,000 concurrent users on a single Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 server using Solaris Containers to improve server utilization. This outstanding performance greatly reduces energy, space, and cooling requirements to run critical enterprise applications such as Siebel CRM.
