Sun Advantage

How Navagate is Optimized on Sun

Solaris 10 Operating System
Agility runs on Solaris 10 on SPARC and AMD Opteron. With more than 600 new features, this latest version of Solaris provides unparalleled performance, reliability and security. Solaris 10 operates with near 0% downtime, and includes new high-availability ZFS file handling capabilities.

Java Enterprise Edition Platform J2EE
Navagate Agility uses J2EE integration for all application resources and supports enterprise-grade implementation of the new Sun Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) standard for the Insurance industry.

Java Application Server
Navagate Agility integrates with this next generation service delivery platform with support for multiple database products, including Oracle 9i and 10g, IBM DB2, and Microsoft SQL Servers.

Java Composite Application Suite JCAPS
JCAPS allows for rapid, API-level integration of Navagate solutions with existing legacy systems, including .Net applications.

Java Web Server
Provides secure, continuous and highly available browser access to the Navagate solution.

Enterprise and Midrange SunFire Servers for the Business Logic/Database Tier
In these areas, Navagate Agility runs on SunFire servers, in particular the Sun Fire X4200, V4900, 25K (3x4 CPU boards) servers. SunFire servers may be configured and scaled to meet both horizontal and vertical expansion of insurance and annuity products. New cool threads technology provides high performance, energy savings and lower TCO.

Entry-level Sun Fire Servers and X64 Servers for the Presentation/Application Tier
For less compute-intensive areas, Sun Fire V400 and other SPARC or X64 entry-level servers can be used. For small, staged or limited deployments, both server lines provide the ideal platform for implementation. AMD Opteron-based X64 servers provide support for multiple operating systems, including Solaris, Linux, Windows and VM Ware.

StorageTek Storage Devices Navagate Agility works with Sun's StorageTek storage devices, including the StorEdge 630. StorageTek storage devices may be configured to meet virtually any online or near-line storage requirements, including policy archiving and compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley.
