    Sun Microsystems, Inc. (Nasdaq: SUNW) is demonstrating innovative High   Performance Computing (HPC) solutions this week at the International   Supercomputing Conference in Dresden, Germany. Sun will provide a first glimpse   of the Solaris (TM) 10 Operating System-based Sun(TM) Constellation System, one   of the world's first open Petascale computing environments. The result of a   collaboration between Sun and the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) at the   University of Texas in Austin, the Sun Constellation System is expected to be   one of the most powerful computing platforms in the world.
   
    The Sun   Constellation System brings key innovations to market and is designed for   radical simplicity that puts a new level of HPC within reach for customers. The   system combines ultra-dense, high-performance computing, networking, storage and   software into an integrated system that delivers massive scalability,   dramatically reduced complexity and breakthrough economics. Based on proven,   open industry standard technologies and the Solaris 10 Operating System (OS),   Sun's HPC solutions can quickly scale to allow for rapid deployment and faster   time-to-results than competing HPC solutions. Customers who use Sun's HPC   offerings have achieved capital expenditure savings of 30 percent, improved   energy consumption by 70 percent, and improved time-to-results by as much as 75   percent.
   
    "Sun Constellation System provides customers with the most open   HPC architectures existing in the market today," said Bjorn Andersson, Director   of HPC and Integrated Systems, Sun Microsystems. "Bringing OpenSolaris and other   open source software to the forefront of the HPC market, Sun is ushering in a   new era of HPC computing. For customers, this means being able to now leverage   the reliability and security of the Solaris 10 OS coupled with the massive   scalability of the Sun Constellation System."
   
    Designed for complex   applications such as climate, weather and ocean modeling, researchers can use   the Sun Constellation System to test next-generation weather forecast codes with   long-term climate modeling. Researchers can also run earthquake and seismic   simulations with higher resolutions and more accurate modeling of wave   propagation to gain further insight into earthquake scenarios.
   
    Further   HPC Innovations and News from Sun at ISC
   
    Univa has joined Sun's Partner   Advantage Program and the Partner Community for HPC. Under an OEM agreement,   Univa will package Sun(TM) Grid Engine as the Distributed Resource Manager with   its Globus Cluster Edition. This agreement expands on the existing Sun-Univa   relationship to enable Sun and Univa's customers to deploy complete HPC   solutions with integrated, best-of-breed, open source components, with full   support from both Univa and Sun.
   
    In addition to previewing the Sun   Constellation System at ISC, Sun will be showcasing a range of exciting demos   and innovation, including: -- Sun Fire(TM) X4600 M2 server with double the   memory, giving customers 1/4 terabyte of memory in a 4U server.
   
    --   Project BlackBox, one of the world's first virtualized datacenter for quick   deployment and efficient operation.
   
    -- Sun HPC ClusterTools (TM) 7   software, an integrated parallel development environment based on the Open MPI   source code enabling customers to run complex, compute-intensive applications on   Sun systems.
   
    -- Network.com (Sun(TM) Grid), an Application Catalog   backed by substantial online resources, offering on-demand delivery of HPC   applications without the need to architect, install or reconfigure HPC   environments.
   
    -- Sun(TM) Studio 12 software, a compiler and tools   software for both the Solaris 10 OS and GNU/Linux platforms empowering   developers to take full advantage of recent advances in multi-core and   multithreading applications.
   
    -- Sun(TM) Grid Engine 6.1 hardware   (released May 8th, 2007), providing policy-based workload management and dynamic   provisioning of application workloads. (A preview of the upcoming new Advanced   Reservation feature is available via the open source Grid Engine project.)
   
    -- Complete lifecycle management via Sun(TM) Connection services,   helping network managers discover, provision, patch and monitor thousands of   compute nodes.
   
    -- Sun(SM) HPC Quick Start Services, making it easy for   customers to adopt, implement and optimize HPC solutions -- with deployment time   savings of up to 80%.
   
    The Sun Constellation System will be previewed at   the Sun Microsystems booth B35 at 6:00pmCET, on Tuesday, June 26. For more   information about Sun's HPC solutions, please visit http://www.sun.com/hpc
