What is the difference between xVM hypervisor and xVM Server?
xVM hypervisor is a feature of the OpenSolaris (Nevada) builds based on the work of the Xen community that allows Solaris to run multiple, differing guest operating systems on x64 systems. xVM Server is a fully fledged product in the form of an appliance, which builds on the features of the xVM hypervisor and integrates in other features such as management, a BUI and improved usability to provide an out of the box appliance that can quickly be used in a customer environment with full support also available.

Licenciamento Oracle Standart
http://www.oracle.com/corporate/pricing/sig.pdf
Standard Edition
Oracle Database Standard Edition offers a low cost alternative for small/medium business or departmental applications that want the
power of Oracle. Oracle Database Standard Edition can only be licensed on servers that have a maximum capacity of 4 sockets. If licensing by
Named User Plus, the minimum is 5 Named User Plus licenses. Effective with the release of 10g, the Oracle Database Standard Edition product
includes the Real Applications Clusters database option. The Real Applications Clusters option is not included with any Standard Edition
versions prior to 10g. Customers who obtain Oracle’s Software Updates License & Support for the Standard Edition Database can upgrade to the
10g version of the product for the supported licenses. Also, Customers must use Oracle Cluster Ready Services as the clusterware; third party
clusterware is not supported, AND Customers must use Automatic Storage Management to manage all data.
Standard Edition One
Oracle Standard Edition One provides companies the total power of Oracle Database at an affordable entry price. Oracle Standard Edition
One may only be licensed on servers that have a maximum capacity of 2 sockets. If licensing by Named User Plus, the minimum is 5 Named User
Plus licenses.

TACC Ranger
Para quem tem interesse nos detalhes por trás da premiação da Sun no Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC). Eis o que eles estão rodando:
TFLOPs: aproximadamente 500 TERAFLOPs
Magnums: 2 (cada um com >2000 portas IB 4x, expandível para 6.912 portas)
Thumpers: 72 (1.728 PB)
Armazenamento de metadados : STK6450 RAID (9.3 TB)
Armazenamento em fita : STK SL8500
Gerenciamento de dados/armazenamento: SAM/QFS
Racks: 82
NEMs IB: 328Blades
Pegasus: 3936
Tamanho de memória agregada: 123 TB
Número de cores: 62.976
Total de racks: 94
Base aproximada: 189 m2

How the Sun Enterprise 10000 was born
A group of engineers in San Diego left their jobs at well established corporations (especially a large number of former NCR employees) to form their own company. They set out to build massively parallel computers with Sparc processors. The market they were targetting has traditionally been a hard one, and they had a hard time surviving. They were acquired by similar companies and reshaped several times, most notably their second to last acquisition by Cray Research, Inc.. They were also joined with several engineers in Beaverton, Oregon through these mergers.
Under Cray's leadership, they produced a machine with 64 Sparc processors called the CS6400 (or more affectionately called the SuperDragon since it was an implementation of Sun's sun4d architecture, similar to what would be found in a SparcCenter 2000 computer from Sun). The CS6400 supported a feature called Dynamic System Domains, meaning that its multiple system boards could be electronically isolated into distinct sets (called domains), and that the partitioning could be changed dynamically while separate instances of the operating system were executing within each domain. Another feature called Alternate Pathing allowed SCSI and ethernet devices to be virtualized on top of pairs of SCSI and ethernet interface cards, allowing an operator to dynamically repartition system boards or even physically remove system boards from the chassis without interrupting I/O services provided to the end users.
A relationship was established between the engineers who built the CS6400 and Sun Microsystems because their large Sparc based servers ran the Solaris Operating Environment. (Well, along with a few low level tweaks in the kernel to get Solaris to work on the slightly different hardware, and to support the Alternate Pathing feature and the Dynamic Reconfiguration feature that allows the kernel to release/claim resources as they're physically detached/attached.)
When Cray was purchased by SGI, and while SGI analyzed what it had just bought, it found this quirky little division in San Diego building things with Sparc processors and working closely with Sun Microsystems. SGI didn't really want to keep the group, considering that it clashed with the sorts of technologies that SGI was already producing. So they gladly sold the group off to Sun for about $50 million. Sun liked what the engineers were doing and how their computer systems worked, so it gladly acquired the division just as it was about to complete its follow-on to the CS6400: the Ultra Enterprise Server 10000 (also known as the Starfire).
Development was completed on the new machine under Sun's leadership, and it took off in the marketplace once the fine products from these brilliant engineers were finally coupled with the vast resources of Sun's marketing department. The Enterprise 10000 servers were essentially a more modern and refined approach at what the CS6400 was. The Enterprise 10000 had easier, more reliable Dynamic Reconfiguration. (Although, I'd advise using the Solaris 7 or Solaris 8 versions of DR over the Solaris 2.5.1 and Solaris 2.6 versions if possible; but that's just my personal preference.) It also had faster hardware based on a 16x16 crossbar implementation of Sun's UPA architecture (sun4u, same as an Ultra-1, except on a larger scale). The server was praised in the computer industry for its success at scaling SMP up to the largest number of processors ever achieved, due in no small part to the amazing ASICs that drive its interconnect with a remarkably fast cache coherency snooping implementation. (All 64 processors can access any of the 64GB of memory in the system with uniform performance measurements of ~12GBytes/sec of bandwidth and ~500ns of latency while keeping their 8MB e-cache's coherent.)
Scott McNealy considers his company's acquisition of the Enterprise 10000 and its engineers as the best deal since Microsoft bought DOS. The acquired division was directly responsible for several billion dollars in revenue during its first year within Sun's ranks, not to mention the other revenue associated with selling service and accessories to go with all of that Enterprise 10000 hardware.
