What is the benefit of Throughput Computing to customers?
Throughput Computing is designed to offer customers significantly improved processing efficiency by allowing multi-threaded applications to run much faster and enabling a single processor to run multiple applications using Solaris containers. Being able to purchase systems that are so much more efficient can help enable customers to experience a variety of savings, including lower cost of acquisition as well as dramatically reduced space, power and maintenance requirements. In addition, having fewer to manage, simpler, single-processor systems can also help improve reliability and availability. Because CMT-based servers will be so much more efficient, our customers will be able to focus their IT budgets on building competitive advantage through the deployment of new business services, and the enhancement of existing services.
