Industry’s first servers based on 16-core SPARC T3 processor and Sun ZFS Storage Appliance product line announced at Oracle OpenWorld.
Demonstrating Oracle’s commitment to the SPARC platform and its leadership in mission-critical computing, Oracle has announced the industry's first 16 core processor and new SPARC T3 systems, which achieved multiple world-record benchmarks. The new SPARC T3 systems start with a single-socket 16 core blade, and extend all the way up to a 4-socket, 64 core server with 512 threads. With integrated security and virtualization capabilities, these scalable systems provide customers with unrivaled compute density and twice the performance of Oracle’s existing Sun SPARC Enterprise T-series systems.
The tight integration of the industry leading SPARC T3 systems, Oracle Solaris, and Oracle business applications combine in the newly announced Oracle Optimized Solutions. Comprised of Oracle’s Sun servers and storage, networking components, Oracle Database, Oracle Fusion Middleware and Oracle Applications, these integrated software and hardware solutions are optimized to accelerate application deployment, maximize availability, and deliver performance levels that are unmatched in the industry.
Oracle also announced its next-generation Sun ZFS Storage Appliance family of unified storage systems, which feature high-density disks and unique Flash acceleration. The Sun ZFS Storage Appliance product line delivers a 50 percent increase in throughput and support for multiple concurrent data services making it the ideal platform for storage consolidation and refresh.
Oracle is the only company to provide the complete technology stack, which allows engineering, tuning, and collaboration to be achieved at any level. And because Oracle systems are built on open standards, they can be deployed in the data center as individual components, or as complete solutions that are integrated from applications to disk.
