Sun Microsystems and NVIDIA Form Professional Graphics AllianceSun Java Workstations are designed to support simultaneous 32-bit and 64-bit computing with no compromises in performance, allowing users to maintain their existing x86 infrastructure while still enabling a smooth migration to next-generation 64-bit operating systems and applications when required.
A day after visual computing company SGI announced its relationship with ATI Technologies, competitor Nvidia is boasting about its new alliance with Sun Microsystems.
Sun has bundled Nvidia's Quadro graphics technology into its Java Workstations running Solaris, Windows or Linux operating systems in its W1100z and W2100z models, based on the AMD Opteron processor with Direct Connect Architecture.
That means a suite of Nvidia solutions -- including Quadro FX 4000, FX 3000, FX 1100, FX 500 and NVS 280 -- are now available. Both Sun and Nvidia are bullish about current and future opportunities.
Improved 2D, 3D Performance
"By partnering with Nvidia, we can now deliver best-in-class graphics solutions that benefit our customers across multiple industries," said Sun's director of workstation product marketing Brian Healy.
