Under the multiyear agreement, Dell also will provide Solaris support services to its PowerEdge customers. The agreement brings two rivals together, with Dell gaining a relationship to better serve its customers already running Solaris on their systems and Sun a potentially larger market base for Solaris.

It's time to pay attention to Sun's x86 server biz

The fresh Xeon-based servers from Sun mark the company's most muscular play to date in the x86 realm. The four-socket 2U X4450, in particular, has Sun pushing the equivalent of a midrange SMP down into the heart of the so-called commodity market. This move plays well with Sun's historic strengths in the SMP (symmetric multi-processing) arena and supports Sun' "R&D will win" mantra.

Sun crams four sockets worth of Xeons into 2U box

Sun Microsystems today announced a pair of new four-core Xeon-based boxes that give customers just about the most performance and choice out of any low-end servers from a Tier 1 vendor. The fresh X4450, for example, packs four of Intel's 7300 series Xeon chips into a 2U system. All of the other major vendors require at least 4U for their four-socket units. The system also has a mouth-watering 32 DIMM slots with support for up to 128GB of memory. That should be enough to run your virtualization software.

Sun Ships Intel-Based Galaxy Rack Servers

Seven months after inking a joint development and OEM agreement with Intel, the engineers at Sun Microsystems have put out a second-generation of "Galaxy" X64-based servers that make use of the latest quad-core Xeon processors from Intel. The machines represent another leap in performance, density, and efficiency compared to the initial Opteron-based Galaxy machines from two years ago, and very likely preview what future "Barcelona" Rev F Opteron Galaxy boxes will look like.
