$700M+ in revenue since Dec. 2005 introduction

“We are ecstatic with the cost, throughput performance, and power economics of the Sun Fire™ T2000 servers... We experienced a 50% decrease in server power consumption.”

“[The Sun Fire T2000 servers] utilize less space and consume much less energy while delivering significantly improved performance.”

“Numbers don't lie: We experienced a 300% performance increase after we started using the T1000s – in a third of the space, and at a third of the power consumption...”

“We improve performance so much and reduce costs in so many ways with the T2000 that it represents a 10X improvement in price-performance for our entire architecture.”

• Up to 64 domains (LDoms) • High capacity memory and disk

• Crypto accelerator• 10GbE networking• Free SolarisTM 10

Containers and ZFS

Page 24

Consolidate and Save

• One Sun™ SPARC® Enterprise T5220 server or Sun Blade™ T6320 server module can replace eight older IBM x346 servers

• Requires eight fewer system administrators per deployed rack

Saves over $1 million in energy and virtualization costs over 3 years

Page 25

Free, Built-in Logical Domains

• Scale vertically and horizontally at the same time with LDoms

• LDoms are FREE> Save up to $9,000

per system, compared to IBM’s APV on the p5 550Q

Page 26

LDoms Let You Add Value• Up to 64 virtual

systems per server — manage fewer systems

• Virtualized hardware reduces complexity

• Easily size/resize virtual systems as needed

• Easily back up and checkpoint virtual systems ...rather than a

maintenance headache

LDoms let you focus on making your datacenter a strategic advantage...

Page 27

• LDoms are open source and flexible

• LDoms are free; no additional fees to install or use them

• LDoms are lightweight — almost zero overhead

Sun Open Virtualization Saves Money

• VMware is closed and proprietary

• VMware Infrastructure 3costs up to $10,000 per server

• VMware scans and rewrites guest code on the fly — very high overhead

Page 28

Customers Are Endorsing LDoms

Over 1,000 free downloads, to 500+ unique organizations, in the first three months of release

“The functionality is easy to understand and implement; creation of guest domains is fast and straightforward.”

“We plan to implement LDoms as soon as the General Availability release is available.”

“LDoms work really well.”

“The Early Access version became available in the morning, and we had it running by 2 PM the same day!”

“Ten guest LDoms have been running live for over a week — with real users and developers on them — without a glitch. Ten days later, we had ten T2000s in production, with 68 guest domains running!”

Higher Performance, Greater Energy Efficiency"As Europe's second largest web host, we are always interested in testing new solutions that enable us to deliver the highest levels of service to our customers, at the lowest cost...The new Sun SPARC Enterprise T5x20 servers will enable us to significantly extend our ability to scale quickly and efficiently, while further reducing costs. We estimate that the T5000 servers will deliver around 2.5x higher throughput than the existing T2000 servers when running our Apache web servers and mail servers, which has been proven in our testing...the T5000 offers a performance per watt ratio that is nearly doubled in a direct comparison to its predecessor the T2000...we will use the extended functionality of the T5000 servers to run our floating point-intensive SPAM filters, and encrypt our SMTP traffic, ensuring higher levels of security for our customers”--Rene Wienholtz, CTO at Strato AG

“"...we have tested a range of applications including our web server, JBoss and BEA WebLogic Java application servers, mail servers, NFS and Oracle databases. We found our performance scaled linearly with the 64 threads available, with the result that we were able to deliver over 2x higher throughput than the Sun Fire T2000, and much higher levels of performance than our existing x86 and SPARC-based rack and blade servers....with higher levels of power and space efficiency than anything we have experienced before.. we will be deploying the Sun SPARC Enterprise T5120 and T5220 servers to keep pace with our ever expanding customer base....”--Radoslaw Korzeniewski, IT Systems Expert

Our Customers' Say it Best"Parallel applications – we employ multi-threading with OpenMP and message passing with MPI heavily – scale well on the UltraSPARC T2 processor. A single UltraSPARC T2 processor provides a higher memory bandwidth than full blown 24 socket legacy systems. In summary, there is an important class of HPC applications which run very well on the UltraSPARC T2 Processor: Parallel programs, which consume a high memory bandwidth, profit from this processor’s architecture. Multiple instances of such codes display a very favourable throughput. Taking the low power consumption of the UltraSPARC T2 processor into account, replacing our existing legacy equipment for HPC is a highly attractive option, a long away ahead of any other competitive offering."
