Sun / Fujitsu SPARC Server Line Finally Sees Light of Day

TOKYO - April 17, 2007 - Fujitsu and Sun Microsystems, Inc. today unveiled a new line-up of co-developed mainframe-class servers.

The new servers, based on the SPARC architecture and running the Solaris 10 OS, are the fastest SPARC servers ever, and will be marketed by both companies and affiliates under the "SPARC Enterprise" product brand. This the culmination of over two years of joint development between Fujitsu and Sun, building on their 20-year strategic relationship.

The new servers (available today) address the growing customer need to maximize system utilization by offering an array of highly granular partitioning and domaining technologies.
