X86 Servers
Sun offers the broadest range of x86 systems - powered by Intel® Xeon® or AMD Opteron processors to deliver performance, scalability, energy efficiency, manageability and longevity. Whether you run Solaris, Linux or Windows, Sun x86 systems cover high performance computing, server consolidation and web infrastructure needs.
Sun's new x86 open network systems help you maximize the economics of computing, providing you with speed, savings, and simplicity you need to optimize your data centre. New Flash-enabled x86 systems simplify system management, reduce energy consumption, increase power efficiency, and deliver higher performance per watt, resulting in superior price/performance.
Power Efficiency
Innovative power-management capabilities result in overall energy efficiency. The servers remain in idle states longer, have better granularity, and are more responsive to changes in demand, reducing energy costs.
Solaris Leadership
Solaris unlocks the enterprise capabilities of the Intel Xeon Processor 5500 Series, delivering performance, power efficiency, reliability, and virtualization capabilities found in no other x64 platform.
Simplified System Management
Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) handles overall server management and integrates easily with leading system management platforms, such as Sun xVM Ops Centre, and popular third-party monitoring frameworks.
Extreme Performance
Optimized for the new Intel Core Microarchitecture, the Solaris OS enables Sun's x64 systems to achieve record performance. DTrace detects bottlenecks and Solaris helps increase throughput, responsiveness, and overall performance.
Intelligent Scalability
With a common, ultra dense-memory architecture and high-performance InifiniBand switching, Sun's new systems rapidly scale with minimal complexity. Plus, all the systems expand to 8 cores in a 1 RU factor, saving on real estat
Flash-Ready
Flash SSDs shatter I/O bottlenecks and dramatically improve server performance and efficiency. Integrate SSDs and double server throughput while using 98% less power per IOPS and 38% less power per GB of storage
