Sun ONE on entry level systems and Linux

Sun Microsystems has launched a new generation of low-cost, entry level x86

systems that will include – as part of the system – the Sun Open Net

Environment (Sun ONE) software stack and other key software offerings.

Sun’s

first product in the entry level x86 system category, the LX50, is the industry’s

first enterprise-class, low-cost system to ship with pre-integrated and

optimized software and applications including Sun ONE software, Linux, Solaris

Operating Environment (OE) and Java technology.

By pre-integrating its enterprise-class software into the LX50, Sun is

significantly changing the economics for its customers by offering one system,

with both hardware and software, at one price.

Key Sun ONE products come pre-configured on the LX50. By integrating its

middleware products with Java technology and XML on a single system, customers

automatically have all the tools they need to deploy their applications across

any operating system. Since these tools are already integrated into the system,

customers have everything already out of the box, with no downloads,

installations, or hassles.
