Part 1: Solaris Platform

For Application Hosting on a Solaris platform, the DTS works with customers to select an appropriate configuration based on the customer’s business needs. The following basic components are available for Solaris platforms as part of the standard Application Hosting service. Additional processing capabilities are available through the add-on components that are available for this platform.

• Basic Components
  
  • Server operating system software
  • Server hardware
  • Data storage
  • One 100 Mbps network connection
  • IP addresses (up to three per server)
  • Software licensing and vendor contract administration
  • Operating system upgrades and maintenance (patches)
  • Operating system security administration
  • File system creation and maintenance
  • System administration including user account and disk management
  • Delegation to customer of user access administration
  • Anti-virus protection
  • Backup and Recovery including off-site storage
  • Monitoring and management
  • Technology Refresh on a five-year cycle

The performance of a specific application is dependant on many factors, including most that are outside the scope of the system administrators. The systems are initially sized based on project recommendations and refreshed systems are sized based on historical information. Unplanned workload growth can affect the performance of any application. As requested by the customer, DTS will upgrade or replace servers to meet these new workloads.
