SPARC T4 ServersMore than 50 impressed Beta customers

“Our benchmark testing of Oracle’s SPARC T4 system on our ERP System led to impressive results. We saw performance enhancements of up to 4x compared to our legacy server. Deployment was easy; just a drop in. Our planned worldwide rollout will take advantage of the SPARC T4’s very modest space, energy and heat requirements. In our production deployment we plan to use Oracle Solaris virtualization to implement containers and consolidate several workloads onto a single server.”

Thomas Kleber, Department Lead IT, Kromberg & Schubert GmbH & Co

“At Qualcomm, our testing on the SPARC T4 systems showed huge performance improvements and impressive results across the operating system and SunRay login server. With the T4's new CPU performance, RAM capacity and stability of SPARC Solaris, our ‘per system user limit’ will increase from 100 users on an M3000 to 200 users, while providing 4x CPU headroom.”Rob Mallory - IT Architect
