Deployment. Oracle acquired Sun Microsystems in 2010, and since that time Oracle's hardware and software engineers have worked side-by-side to build fully integrated systems and optimized solutions designed to achieve performance levels that are unmatched in the industry.
Early examples include the Oracle Exadata Database Machine X2-8, and the first Oracle Exalogic Elastic Cloud, both introduced in late 2010. During 2011, Oracle introduced the SPARC SuperCluster T4-4, a general-purpose, engineered system with Oracle Solaris that delivered record-breaking performance on a series of enterprise benchmarks. Oracle's SPARC-based systems are some of the most scalable, reliable, and secure products available today. Java BluePrints: Guidelines, patterns, and code for end-to-end applications. Guide to Coping with Sun JARs. Often users are confronted with the need to build against JARs provide by Sun like the JavaMail JAR, or the Activation JAR and users have found these JARs not present in central repository resulting in a broken build.
Unfortunately most of these artifacts fall under Sun's Binary License which disallows us from distributing them from Ibiblio. Another problem is that Sun's appears not to have any sort of convention for naming their own JARs so we have taken steps in suggesting some common names for Sun's artifacts.
