Sun S7-2 and T2/Linux
The Sun S7 are sixth generation Sun Niagara "Cool Threads" hyper
threaded high end, "cloud" optimized 64-bit UltraSPARC servers that
delivered world record performance on a highly scalable, secure and
integrated platform optimized for enterprise software.
As other high-end servers, the T5 based UltraSPARC systems come
with a hypervisor firmware and can be partitionized.
