Since the acquisition we've released both the T5/M5 and announced the upcoming M7 due in 2015. We've also engineered the SPARC SuperCluster machine that combines SPARC compute nodes with infiniband and ZFS storage appliances. Sent from my iPhone

The new SPARC M7 chip was only possible by combining the RDBMS team with our hardware designers so that we could create a chip that could offload RDBMS functions into silicon.
Cool. I remember when Symbolics were doing this (for Lisp, obviously, not RDBMS). I didn't know Oracle was even SELLING sparc, let alone making new hardware revisions.
Of course, I'm not their target market ;-)
