Кто здесь?! :)

Компании Sun Microsystems Inc. и Intel Corporation заключили соглашение в рамках которого Intel займется продвижением Solaris, Java и NetBeans, а Sun начнет производство новых серверов и рабочих станций на базе процессоров Intel Xeon.

Отныне Intel будет представлять Solaris в качестве основной ОС для серверных платформ на базе CPU Intel Xeon, а также заниматься распространением и поддержкой решений на базе Solaris.

Планируется начало проведения совместных инженерных разработок и маркетинговых мероприятий.

Intel® Xeon® processors power Sun's hardware and software solutions
Sun will deliver a comprehensive set of Intel® technology-based systems, with plans for single, dual, and multi-processor based enterprise servers, telecommunication servers and workstations supporting Solaris*, Windows* and Linux. Sun intends to announce the first Intel Xeon processor-based systems in the first half of 2007. With the Intel and Sun Microsystems strategic alliance, IT customers can deploy the Solaris OS - an enterprise class, mission critical UNIX Operating System - on Intel Xeon processor-based servers. The scope spans Solaris, Java, Intel Xeon processors and other Intel enterprise-class technologies over a multi-year period collaboration agreement.

Solaris* optimized for Intel® Xeon® processors
In the coming months, Sun and Intel will combine the breakthrough performance, scalability, and reliability of the Quad-Core and Dual-Core Intel® Xeon® processor-based server systems with the Sun Solaris OS. The Solaris platform is supported by over 2000 ISVs on hundreds of platforms that deliver the scaling, functionality and security capable of handling explosive network growth. This combination will provide IT with enhanced OS performance and reliability.

Sun will launch the first of these systems for dual and quad-core processor-based servers in the first half of 2007. In addition, Sun and Intel will extend the collaboration to greater than four Intel Xeon processor scale-up systems and optimize those systems for the mission critical, enterprise class Solaris OS.
