April 12, 2007, SUNDAY at UCSC

UC Santa Cruz Sun Day

Today’s institutions face a myriad of IT challenges, including managing data growth, protecting data, and simplifying data management; all while attempting to reduce IT costs. Sun has some answers to these difficult challenges and we would like to share them with you.

We’ll be on campus for a technical update and we would like you to join us.

We'll discuss:

Data Center in a Box -- Project Blackbox Trailblazing Advancements

Project Blackbox's innovative design will offer businesses unparalleled speed, flexibility, and economics in deploying IT resources anywhere at any time.

> A Complete Datacenter Designed for Rapid

Deployment

> Unmatched Datacenter Flexibility

> Breakthrough Economics

High Performance Computing

In the new global economy, speed-to-market is an essential component in getting, and staying, ahead of the competition. High Performance Computing (HPC) concentrates on this critical need. It uses compute power to help solve highly complex problems, perform critical analysis, or run computationally intensive workloads —all faster and more efficiently. The outcome is faster time to results.

Disaster Recovery/Storage Planning for Continuity

> Sun is on campus and you are invited to join us!

“ Just about every CIO and startup I meet saysthey're crippled by datacenter energy and spaceconstraints -- today's solutions are clearly failingto meet the needs of Web 2.0 ”

— Jonathan Schwartz CEO and President Sun Microsystems

Data and communication centers are the heart of most institutions today. When either key asset is compromised -- whether by hardware failure, software failure, data corruption, or data loss -- an institution faces severe potential losses unless a robust contingency plan is already in place.
