Sun was founded with one driving vision. A vision
of computers that talk to each other no matter who built them. A vision in
which technology works for you, not the other way around. While others
protected proprietary, stand-alone architectures, we focused on taking
companies into the network age, providing systems and software with the
scalability and reliability needed to drive the electronic marketplace.
Sun Microsystems established its Middle East and North Africa (MENA) regional
headquarters in Dubai, United Arab Emirates in 1992. Since then Sun has opened
two offices in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (Riyadh and Al-Khobar) and one
office in Cairo, Egypt. Sun employs over 120 skilled professionals in the
Middle East and North Africa, and markets its Sun ONE software, servers,
software, storage, workstations and desktops throughout the region. Sun's local
Support Services, Professional Services and Educational Services provide
comprehensive support, consultancy and training solutions which complement
Sun's product offerings in the MENA region.

- Sun StorEdge Availability
Suite software
|
|
Sun StorEdge Availability Suite software helps
reduce disruptions to your critical business applications and data, provide
rapid recovery, and enable data repurposing, providing a solid foundation for a
data continuance environment. The software features a point-in-time copy
capability as well as a remote mirroring capability.
Point-in-time copy software allows creation and
management of instant snapshot (point-in-time) copies of data, allowing
repurposing of data for applications such as hot backup, decision support, or
application development and testing. Remote mirror software allows mirroring of
data to multiple remote secondary sites for disaster recovery, data protection,
and storage migration. The software supports both synchronous and asynchronous
data replication, providing the flexibility to address a variety of application
requirements.
With the combination of point-in-time copy and
remote mirror software, Sun StorEdge Availability Suite software delivers a key
component of Sun's data continuance offering, providing robust and
comprehensive solutions designed to help you solve problems associated with
protecting data and applications. In addition, Sun offers a range of data
continuance solutions that combine Sun and partner products, giving you a
choice of solutions that offer different protection levels across applications
and data topographies and allow you to align solutions with your service-level
requirements.

- Sun StorEdge Enterprise
Backup software
|
|
Sun StorEdge Enterprise Backup software (formerly Solstice Backup software), an integral component of Sun's data continuance solutions, delivers centralized data protection and management across heterogeneous environments. Features such as snapshot management, advanced indexing, high speed parallelism, automated media management, LAN-free and serverless backup, cluster awareness, comprehensive NDMP (Network Data Management Protocol) support, and dynamic tape drive sharing enable you to fully protect storage assets and minimize downtime. For hands-free data protection, the software's Autochanger and Silo Modules support an extensive variety of Sun StorEdge tape and robotic devices. In addition, the software's DiskBackup Option allows data to be backed up to disk, staged from disk, and automatically moved to tape or cloned from disk to tape or disk - all with single-step recovery. The software's Application Modules deliver "hot" backup and granular recovery for Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, IBM DB2, IBM Informix, Sybase, Microsoft Exchange, IBM Lotus Notes/Domino, and SAP. You can combine Sun StorEdge Enterprise Backup software with Sun StorEdge Availability Suite software's point-in-time copy capability to achieve an even higher level of impact-free data protection.
