Oracle ’ s SPARC T4 servers running Oracle Solaris delivers world record performance
on a highly scalable, secure and integrated platform optimized for enterprise software.
With a 5x improvement in single thread performance, S PARC T4 servers are highly
optimized for Oracle and 3 rd party software The new SPARC T4-1 is a highly
cost efficient platform for web infrastructure, middleware and application
development.
Figure 1: The SPARC T4-1 server offers maximum security, speed, and scale for your Web
infrastructure.
Product Overview
The SPARC T4-1 server is powered by the SPARC T4 processor that combines a new level of
single-threaded performance along with high overall system throughput. The advanced
SPARC T4 processor features integrated on-chip cryptographic support that provides wire
speed encryption capabilities without an application performance penalty
The SPARC T4-1 is equipped with one SPARC T4 processor and 16 DIMM slots, which can
support a total of 256GB of memory when populated with 16GB DIMMs. The SPARC T4-1
delivers highly expandable internal storage and network connectivity as the server has room
for a combination of eight hard disk drives or solid state drives and six PCI Express card slots.
Also included are four 1GbE ports and a 10GbE XAUI port. The SPARC T4-2 server comes
integrated at no additional cost with Oracle VM Server for SPARC and Oracle Solaris. The
SPARC T4-2 supports both Solaris 10 and Solaris 11 including the latest Oracle Solaris
Containers, ZFS and Electronic Prognostics.
