With nearly 5 million registered users, Solaris 10 is a tried and true enterprise-grade operating system offering powerful yet stable performance for Web, database, and application servers.

AMD, Sun, and the Open Source Community Working Together

Solaris 10 leverages the best software from Sun and the open source community. With a fully open source code via OpenSolaris, your programmers can validate the OSs security and customize its capabilities to meet targeted enterprise needs.

While Solaris 10 already is optimized for AMD64 technology, AMD and Sun are working together to further extend its capabilities. A unique co-development partnership ensures Solaris 10 incorporates advanced support for AMD Opteron architecture features such as HyperTransport technology and AMD Virtualization.

Built to Scale with Multi-Core Platforms and AMD64 Technology

Just as AMD designed AMD64 technology for multiple cores, Sun engineered Solaris 10 for multi-core systems. For example, Solaris Containers enable core-level resource management, and innovative features like Predictive Self-Healing and Dynamic Tracing (DTrace) maximize uptime while optimizing system performance.

Solaris 10 simplifies the migration path to 64-bit computing. Deploy 64-bit applications on the same environment as their 32-bit predecessors, ensuring a seamless transition to the advanced performance, security, and reliability of AMD64 technology.

World-Record Performance with World-Class TCO

Dozens of world-record benchmarks attest to the performance benefits of Solaris 10 on AMD Opteron processor-based systems. And with Sun offering a broad range of support options at an excellent value, enterprises deploying this industry-leading combination can save up to 40 percent over competitors Linux® solutions.
