Forrester Research - Quick Take on the Niagara chip From the Executive Summary: On November 14, Sun Microsystems announced the arrival of the long-awaited Niagara CPU called UltraSPARC T1, which is the first member of Sun's new multicore highly threaded SPARC processors. Niagara offers a binary-compatible upgrade path for current Sun SPARC users and industry-leading performance and performance per watt compared to alternatives. With this product, Sun hits a sweet spot for its current Solaris customers, and it may also have at least a temporary wedge to expand its Solaris franchise in selected markets. In addition, the fact that the announcement comes slightly earlier than expected bodes well for Sun's ability to execute the rest of the chip multithreaded (CMT) road map.
