Sun Fire E2900 Server

The Sun Fire E2900 server delivers enterprise-class availability and scalability at entry-level prices. Scaling up to 12 UltraSPARC IV processors with chip multithreading technology executing 24 simultaneous computing threads, this high-performance, rack-optimized server is ideal for a wide range of compute-intensive applications. The SunFire E2900 server protects investments with the ability to mix and manage UltraSPARC IV and UltraSPARC III processors--running at their rated speeds--in the same system, and offers advanced features such as Dynamic Reconfiguration for hot swapping processor/memory boards while applications are up and running, for higher availability. This server also comes remote-services ready for preemptive support and preloaded with a rich set of applications with the Java Enterprise System. This server is available in the Sun Customer Ready Systems (CRS) program for factory integration into ready-to-deploy, customer-specific solutions.
