Sun Fire 6800 Server Support Expertise
Independent Sun Fire 6800 Server Support Expertise
For data warehousing, data mining, server consolidation,and other missioncritical data center applications, the UltraSPARC III technology-based Sun Fire 6800 server is a powerful,highly available solution. Featuring the redundant, reconfigurable Sun Fireplane interconnect, this server delivers impressive total system performance. Full hardware redundancy and a variety of advanced mainframe-class availability fea ures,such as Hot CPU Upgrades and Dynamic Reconfiguration help provide maximum uptime. With Solaris Resource Manager and Dynamic System Domains*, the server has the flexibility to accommodate changing resource requirements across multiple applications. For mission-critical environments where manageability, performance, and availability are key, the Sun Fire 6800 server delivers. At the heart of Sun Fire midframe servers,the Sun Fireplane interconnect provides very high sustained bandwidth 9.6 GB per second.Sun Fire servers also fea ure the 64-bit UltraSPARC III processor with 8 MB of e-cache,with a four-way associative on-chip 64-KB data and 32-KB instruction cache and integrated memory controller.These capabilities make the Sun Fire 6800 server an excellent platform for commercial or high-performance computing.
