The combination of SunFire Servers powered by the UltraSPARC T1, T2 and T2 Plus processors with CoolThreads technology and Symantec Brightmail AntiSpam software offers a high-performance solution that doesn't break your space, power, or cooling budget.

Not all software is ready to harness the computing power of the UltraSPARC T1, T2 and T2 Plus processors out of the box, and Symantec Brightmail AntiSpam is no exception. Sun and Symantec worked together to optimize SBAS performance using a load generator to drive a synthetic workload. The result is a set of tuning steps to increase the number of threads that the software will utilize, and changes to reduce the contention for software locks.

Tuning Symantec Brightmail AntiSpam on Sun Servers with CoolThreads Technology (Jun 2009)

As the flow of information to and from businesses increase and both government and corporate regulations are part of everyday life, it becomes increasingly necessary to address the problem of data management. Electronic information is the norm, and storing and maintaining that data in a way that makes it easy to retrieve is critical to the overall functioning of the enterprise. In addition, the cost of keeping high quality, easily accessed archives of information can be prohibitive. The problem is exponentially increased when corporations are required to meet government and corporate regulations.

To address this requirement, the Symantec Enterprise Vault software and Sun StorageTek 5320 NAS Appliance with Sun StorageTek NAS Compliance Archiving Software have been integrated into a solution to meet both corporate and government compliance requirements.
