Today’s Agenda
The Web scale challenge
● The success of chip multithreading (CMT)
● The power of virtualization
● Eco-efficient leadership
● Record-setting performance
● Getting started and summary

The Web Scale Explosion
Real business needs:
• Expand the number of stored data objects
from 800,000,000 to 5,000,000,000 in just
10 months
• Manage 2.2 million global preorders, and
ship 1.3 million of them — for delivery on
the same day — to 43,000 ZIP codes
• Handle 920 million transactions in a
single day
• Respond to over 16,000 requests
per second
All examples from Amazon.com
The network is Web scale

Customers Are Embracing CMT
“We are ecstatic with the cost, throughput
performance, and power economics
of the Sun Fire™ T2000 servers...
We experienced a 50% decrease
in server power consumption.”
“We improve performance so much
and reduce costs in so many ways
with the T2000 that it represents a
10X improvement in priceperformance for our entire
architecture.”
“[The Sun Fire T2000 servers] utilize less
space and consume much less energy
while delivering significantly improved
performance.”
“Numbers don't lie: We experienced a
300% performance increase after we
started using the T1000s – in a third of
the space, and at a third of the power
consumption...”

• Easily size/resize virtual
systems as needed
• Easily back up and
checkpoint virtual

LDoms let you focus
on making your datacenter
a strategic advantage...
...rather than a
maintenance headache
Page 26
Sun Open Virtualization Saves Money
• LDoms are open
source and flexible
• LDoms are free;
no additional fees to
install or use them
• LDoms are
lightweight — almost
zero overhead
• VMware is closed
and proprietary
• VMware Infrastructure 3
costs up to $10,000
per server
• VMware scans and
rewrites guest code on
the fly — very high
overhead
Page 27
Customers Are Endorsing LDoms
“The functionality is easy to
understand and implement;
creation of guest domains is
fast and straightforward.”
“We plan to implement
LDoms as soon as the
General Availability release
is available.”
“LDoms work really well.”
“The Early Access version
became available in the
morning, and we had it running
by 2 PM the same day!”
“Ten guest LDoms have been
running live for over a week —
with real users and developers
on them — without a glitch. Ten
days later, we had ten T2000s
in production, with 68 guest
domains running!”

Higher Performance, Greater Energy Efficiency
"As Europe's second largest web host, we are
always interested in testing new solutions that
enable us to deliver the highest levels of
service to our customers, at the lowest
cost...The new Sun SPARC Enterprise T5x20
servers will enable us to significantly extend our
ability to scale quickly and efficiently, while
further reducing costs. We estimate that the
T5000 servers will deliver around 2.5x higher
throughput than the existing T2000 servers
when running our Apache web servers and mail
servers, which has been proven in our
testing...the T5000 offers a performance per
watt ratio that is nearly doubled in a direct
comparison to its predecessor the T2000...we
will use the extended functionality of the T5000
servers to run our floating point-intensive
SPAM filters, and encrypt our SMTP traffic,
ensuring higher levels of security for our
customers”
--Rene Wienholtz, CTO at Strato AG
“"...we have tested a range of applications
including our web server, JBoss and BEA
WebLogic Java application servers, mail servers,
NFS and Oracle databases. We found our
performance scaled linearly with the 64 threads
available, with the result that we were able to
deliver over 2x higher throughput than the Sun
Fire T2000, and much higher levels of
performance than our existing x86 and SPARCbased rack and blade servers....with higher levels
of power and space efficiency than anything we
have experienced before.. we will be deploying
the Sun SPARC Enterprise T5120 and T5220
servers to keep pace with our ever expanding
customer base....”

Our Customers' Say it Best
"Parallel applications – we employ multi-threading with OpenMP and
message passing with MPI heavily – scale well on the UltraSPARC T2
processor. A single UltraSPARC T2 processor provides a higher memory
bandwidth than full blown 24 socket legacy systems. In summary, there is an
important class of HPC applications which run very well on the UltraSPARC
T2 Processor: Parallel programs, which consume a high memory bandwidth,
profit from this processor’s architecture. Multiple instances of such codes
display a very favourable throughput. Taking the low power consumption of
the UltraSPARC T2 processor into account, replacing our existing legacy
equipment for HPC is a highly attractive option, a long away ahead of any
other competitive offering."
