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.
Fujitsu also do their own SPARC development, and for 2011 the Fujitsu "K" computer at RIKEN was #1 on the Top500.
Do they? Or are they just building servers that use SPARC CPUs, like many motherboard manufacturers build for Intel CPUs .... ?
Fujitsu do their own SPARC development and AFAIK manufacture the Oracle-designs SPARC chips as well. But don't quote me on that. :) Cheers, Avi
