Increasing ValueThe Integrated Platform
Increased Value● One distribution for all
SunTM Open Net Environment (Sun ONE) software, on Solaris (SPARC/x86) and Linux
● Three licensing models– Traditional– Predictable– Metered
● Solaris train model● A radical reduction
in complexity
Java Enterprise Systems
Sun's Linux x86 Strategy● Standard Linux + Java + Sun Open Net
Environment (Sun ONE) + SunSM Services– Common integrated Sun ONE stack– Broad ISV application portfolio– Broad hardware support– Java performance optimization
● Delivering Superior Value– Java– Sun ONE portfolio– Development tools– Solaris / Linux compatibility
● Continue active engagement withopen community and standards groups– Promote LSB (standards vs. brand)

Solaris/Linux Compatibility● Java, Sun ONE compatibility
– Equal availability on Solaris and Linux● Open source and Linux applications
– Integrated into Solaris: Apache, Samba, sendmail...– Additional apps via Solaris Companion CD
● Source and binary compatibility– Adhere to industry standards (e.g. POSIX)– Linux API compatibility
● Libraries (glib, GTK+, Tcl/TK, XML2)– Linux Compatibility Assessment Toolkit (LinCAT)
● Library call differences, check shell scripts, recreate config data– lxrun: run Linux binaries on Solaris x86
Sun Linux advantages
● Sun expertise and support– One vendor to contact for service, support– Integration with 64bit environment for all your
Datacenter needs– Data management and storage solutions
● Best of both worlds– Redhat compatible yet streamlined for service
and support
