The "UNIX Mainframe"
|
Sun has already completed over 1000 rehosting conversions from older legacy mainframe environments to the industry's leading open, UNIX-based platform. |
| Full Binary Compatibility |
By providing full support for existing 32-bit applications without compromise -- no compatibility "mode," no software emulation layers, no performance or feature degradation -- the SPARC/Solaris combination leads the industry in 64-bit application support while allowing customers to fully leverage the existing application, training and infrastructure investments. |
| Proven Hardware/Software Technologies for Availability and Security |
The Solaris OS for SPARC platforms offers powerful advantages including dynamic system domains, dynamic reconfiguration, and advanced memory management, as well as a suite of powerful availability features such as Component Health Status, Auto Restoration, and CPU Offlining. And of course, high level, certified security is built into the DNA of Solaris for both SPARC and x86 platforms. |
