SPARC T4-1B Server Module

Extremely Scalable, High-Performance Blade

Oracle's SPARC T4-1B server module running Oracle Solaris with Oracle's Sun Blade 6000 chassis provides an integrated platform that delivers deployment flexibility and high performance for single- and multi-threaded enterprise and mission-critical applications including database, middleware, and web services.

Feature	Benefit
A single 8-core, 2.85 GHz SPARC T4 processor with dedicated 128K L2 cache per core and 4 MB shared L3 cache. The SPARC T4 processor automatically switches to single-thread mode when only a single thread is active, dedicating all resources to that thread's execution.	5x improvement in single thread and 7x increase in floating point performance delivers the horsepower demanded by enterprise applications and enables rapid batch processing while maintaining high throughput performance
Oracle's Sun Blade 6000 provides massive I/O with up to 6.4 terabit-per-second I/O throughput, with blade independent I/O expansion capability	Industry leading I/O bandwidth for peak system performance, supports different types of I/O in single chassis to easily scale and meet various data requirements
16 DIMM slots, which support 256 GB of memory when populated with 16 GB DIMMs	Higher performance for memory intensive applications
Built-in, no-cost, low overhead virtualization with Oracle VM server for SPARC supporting up to 64 virtual machines and thousands of Oracle Solaris Zones on a single server	Provides an ideal mission-critical consolidation platform that speeds consolidation efforts, reduces virtualization overhead, increases system utilization and reduces data center space and energy requirements
Integrated on-chip cryptographic acceleration with support for 16 industry standard security ciphers	Secure computing at wire speed without performance penalties or additional costs
Oracle Solaris pre-installed with every server	The number one enterprise operating system for data centers, developers and service providers delivers the software scalability, manageability, virtualization, and RAS capabilities required for mission-critical deployments
Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center for comprehensive systems management	Dramatically improves the efficiency of IT operations with its integrated lifecycle management and built-in automation
Oracle Integrated Lights Out Management (ILOM)	Reduces operating and administrative costs
