The two companies also worked together on new power management tools. The latest version of Solaris will feature SpeedStep, which allows users to fine-tune power management according to each system's consumption.
The update introduces a feature which allows for a cap to be placed on CPU usage, and a new component lets users run previous versions of Solaris in a virtualised environment.
Sun said that the virtualisation tool will be of special interest to users looking migrate from a machine running an older version of the operating system.
