How to build one giant, seamless, global, mission-critical, Internet computing system -- the easy way.

[ACCESS] [SECURITY] [PUBLISHING] [COMMERCE]

With innovative solutions from the Internet leader, Sun Microsystems.

When other companies were still looking at computers as stand-alone personal productivity tools, Sun stated its vision in a simple, declarative sentence: "The network is the computer."

Our founding vision is today's Internet reality.

For more than a decade now, we've made our name promoting the principles and technologies on which the giant, global web of networks known as the Internet is based -- open network computing, the UNIX(R) operating system, and TCP/IP network protocols. So it should come as no surprise that more than half the servers on the Internet today carry the Sun brand. Or that 80 percent of all Internet applications were developed on our hardware and software platforms.

Sun's position as the Internet platform of choice stems from a variety of factors. Our network-oriented product family features the number one UNIX operating environment, Solaris(TM), and the leading RISC architecture, SPARC(R). Our multiprocessing servers and robust software provide all the power you'll need to take full advantage of Internet resources and opportunities. In fact, our solutions are the most scalable of any on the market. What's more, our support for TCP/IP, "the Internet protocol suite," is the most comprehensive.

These same factors -- and many more -- make Sun Microsystems the ideal partner to help you profit from the Internet.

When it comes to network computing, including their most business-critical applications, more and more forward-looking companies are turning to Sun. One very compelling reason is that we offer the most powerful, robust, and expandable servers on the market -- a full range of cost-effective products to meet the needs of the smallest workgroup or the largest international enterprise. We also provide comprehensive enterprise management solutions and simple PC-to-enterprise integration tools.

Because everything we make is designed for network computing, our systems integrate easily with PCs, mainframes, minicomputers -- whatever you're currently using. We even offer Solaris and our entire suite of software solutions on a variety of hardware and software platforms.

Little wonder, then, that companies such as MCI, AT&T, Sprint, NBC, CBS, British Telecom, Internet Shopping Network, Viacom, Union Bank of Switzerland, Toshiba, and the Financial Times -- to name a few -- have chosen Sun products and services as the foundation for doing business over the Internet. With all the security business demands.

With years of experience in providing business solutions through network computing, we've become the leader in our industry. And we'd like to help you become a leader in yours.

We think we can do a lot to help your business flourish. On the Internet or anywhere network computing is used.

Pulling it all together with world-class expertise.

Finally, you'll need the right expertise to install and integrate these technologies with your existing systems. As the only major company totally focused on open, client-server solutions, we have the experience to help you make the most of the Internet.

By providing turnkey business solutions, Sun has become the Internet solution provider of choice among large corporations. In fact, we've set up some of the largest Web sites in the world. But whether your business is large or small, our consultants can help by delivering efficient integration of hardware, software, and services.

If you are not yet on the Internet, we can help answer the questions that will shape the most effective strategy: What kind of Internet connection is best? Will current network bandwidth be sufficient? How should access be controlled? What resources will be required to maintain a Web server?

Once your requirements are established, we can develop a Web server design tailored to your environment. If you wish, we can also configure, test, start up, and certify your Web server.

Naturally, security will be one of your top priorites. We can evaluate your needs and build a tailored firewall solution balancing access, cost, and risk. We can also perform a comprehensive security audit of your network, recommending managerial and technical frameworks to provide a trusted computing environment.

Our consultants can help you join the Web as a player -- not just a spectator. We can help you determine what Web services should be provided on your network, design your home page, or build a corporate-wide electronic publishing system.

With more than 2100 UNIX experts, 250 service partners, and 100 education centers, Sun is the world's leading UNIX service provider. And through partnerships with many of the best Internet service providers (including some of the largest telecommunications companies), systems integrators, and content experts around the world, we're helping companies make the most of their information systems.

We think we can do a lot for your business, too. On the Internet or anywhere network computing is used.
