No idea if there is any correlation, but this last week had sightings of Sun's products at two high-volume "gadget" news blogs: Engadget and Gizmodo. Engadget covered the New Sun FlashFire Cards while Gizmodo talkeda about VirtualBox. I checked and the last time Engadget covered us significantly was back in 2007; Gizmodo has a few more hits. Does this means we are cool again? :-) |

I think Thumper is Really Cool, so, in the spirit of sharing... Sun is offering an Opportunity to Win a Thumper. Listen to Jonathan's video, and read the details. Prizes include 3 Ultra 20 Workstations and one Thumper (Sun Fire X4500). Good luck! Ah! Check Thumper in Other Units. |

Sreekanth Setty from the Performance, Availability and Architecture Engineering group at Sun Microsystems has published a very informative paper on Deploying Sun Java Enterprise System on the Sun Fire T2000 Server using Solaris Containers (PDF). In the paper, he describes how a system administrator could deploy and tune Sun's Java Enterprise System software on a Sun Fire T2000 using Solaris Zones. The paper also includes results of the JESMark benchmark (that models an employee portal of a large corporation) that was used to test the suggested tuning parameters. |
