We have the strongest ever product and services portfolio, which means we can now support a much wider range of customers and partners - from the large enterprise to the small business," Mr Bennet said. Sun’s offerings range from AMD, Intel and SPARC processor-based server technology to disk and tape storage, thin clients, software and services. In January this year, Sun bought open source database developer MySQL for US$1 billion. “As the largest contributor to the open source movement, Sun is committed to the business model at the heart of MySQL's success - to first invest in communities of users and developers and then create commercial services without customer lock in. With more multi-national companies developing software in-house and then open sourcing them the trust and uptake in open source applications will continue to grow,” said Mr Bennet. |
