Blackbox Challenge - What is your best idea?

Thursday Oct 26, 2006

Let your imagination run wild.... 8 racks: any mix of Sun's servers, storage, tape, etc. plus any mix of network gear and other. Enough cooling for 200kW (25kW per rack). What would you put in a Sun Blackbox?

Several places Sun has talked about 7 racks of computing and one for networking, but what are your thoughts what your most imaginative mix of stuff in 8 racks?

  • Webservering?
  • Supercomputer?
  • Database plus SAP Application Tier?
  • Database engine plus Java Application Tier?
  • ...etc

or what would you put in multiple containers?
