“With the world’s fastest microprocessor, Oracle's SPARC servers running Oracle Solaris are ideal for mission-critical applications that require high performance enterprise computing,” John Foster, Senior Director of Enterprise Systems, Oracle JAPAC shared during the media briefing conducted at Hilton Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Kuala Lumpur, April 18, 2013 – Oracle Corporation (NASDAQ: ORCL) today launched a set of midrange and high-end SPARC systems (SPARC T5 and M5 servers) in Malaysia.

Due to the massive explosion of data and increased requirements to deliver application services to users at a faster pace, businesses in ASEAN are facing issues, i.e. shortage of IT staff to maintain and operate physical servers in silos.
John Foster, Senior Director of Enterprise Systems Oracle JAPAC shared, “Organizations are slowly finding increasingly difficult to respond to application service requests in a timely manner with systems that require periodic downtime or frequent maintenance.”
“In addition, the underused and aging systems are a burden to maintain and become more expensive to operate over time due to increases in services costs and incompatibility with software.”
Businesses today need the computing power to exploit Big Data to discover growth and opportunities, and turn social streams into market intelligence. Traditional systems simply don’t have the horsepower to handle those demanding tasks.
“The new SPARC T5 and M5 systems leapfrog the competition with up to 10x the performance of the previous generation, offering an unbeatable value for midrange and high-end enterprise computing.”
Foster further shared, “In the other hand, many companies also are looking to solve these problems by deploying integrated systems, which will help them to achieve new levels of operating efficiency, improved cost of operation, and higher levels of uptime combined with faster time-to application service delivery.”
“Companies are planning out their IT investments for the next three to five years will continue to look at consolidating assets in order to reduce the cost of operation,” he added.
Before the launch of SPARC T5, SPARC T4 servers featuring Oracle Solaris power mission-critical workloads in over 3,000 enterprises worldwide, nearly 4x the number announced one year ago.
Oracle’s SPARC T4 servers have been adopted globally across all major industries, including Financial Services, Telecommunications, Public Sector and Retail.
Today, Oracle’s go to market strategy is primarily driven through the partners to all major industries that need high-performance for mission-critical applications.
“We want customers to be assured that Oracle continues to invest heavily in SPARC processors and systems. They should also know that the team is delivering exciting new products in a predictable way as we outlined in our public roadmaps,” ended Foster.
