Processor

SPARC64™ VII: High performance with the highest reliability

• Quad cores and the most efficient threading with the maximized resource usage enable excellent performance
• Performance acceleration technologies including Simultaneous MultiThreading(SMT), super scalar, out of order, branch prediction and speculative execution
• Multi-level data protection; ECC (Error Checking and Correction) on cache memory, parity checking and instruction retry on Registers & ALU (Arithmetic and Logical Unit), eliminates all single bit errors
• Cutting-edge large system integration (LSI) technologies based on 65nm semiconductor technology means high performance and low power consumption

No downtime

Hardware availability fully assured by data protection and component redundancy.

• ECC protection assures address and data bus traffic between LSI
• Hardware-level memory patrol detects memory errors without exceptions
• All major components including HDD, Power Supply Units and Fans can be configured redundantly and hot-swapped
• Total system redundancy, including server, storage and network using PRIMECLUSTER

Virtualization

M3000 offers fine-grained partitioning and lowest performance overhead in virtualization.

• Solaris Containers enable thousands of virtual OS partitions on top of each separate system environment, providing outstanding flexibility in workload and scale-out performance
• Graphical multi server management, Server System Manager (standard)
• Remote OS boot (SAN Boot) via fibre-channel

Investment Protection

SPARC/Solaris provides the certainty that protects your system assets and provides mission critical service.

• Lower operational costs including electric charge and license charge can raise investment efficiency
• Solaris, No.1 market share, UNIX OS (based on UNIX System V Release 4)
• Application binary compatibility, ensures all your applications will run without change or recompilation
• SPARC64™ VII and Solaris 10 conform to the same SPARC V9 open processor architecture as all other SPARC processors and operating system versions. This provides the most stable roadmap into the future
