Used SPARC M8-8 Server Specifications

Processor & Core Architecture

Each used Oracle SPARC M8-8 server supports 2 to 8 SPARC M8 processors, with each CPU offering 32 cores and 8 threads per core. These processors enable hardware-accelerated security and compression, ideal for real-time transactional workloads and analytics.

Memory & Scalability

The system supports either 8 or 16 DIMMs per processor, allowing for a substantial memory footprint suitable for large in-memory databases and virtualization clusters. Memory capacity can be tailored to application needs or to compatibility with existing infrastructure.

Storage & NVMe Flash Support

Oracle SPARC M8-8 servers are compatible with optional NVMe flash accelerator cards, which significantly enhance storage performance in I/O-intensive environments. This feature supports high-speed access to critical data while maintaining system efficiency.

Redundant Service Processors & Remote Management

Built-in redundancy through dual service processors ensures uptime and remote system control. These processors enable remote monitoring, which is essential for distributed or hybrid infrastructure teams.

What to Consider When Buying a Used SPARC M8-8 Server

Choose the Right CPU & RAM

Start by evaluating the core count and memory requirements for your specific workloads. Applications such as OLTP, data warehousing, or large-scale virtualization require higher core and memory densities. A custom-configured refurbished SPARC M8-8 server allows you to align specs with performance goals.

Ensure System Compatibility

When adding to an existing environment, hardware compatibility is key. Alta Technologies can assist in identifying systems and parts that match your current infrastructure, helping to minimize integration challenges.

Check Virtualization Support

The SPARC M8 architecture supports Oracle VM Server for SPARC (LDOMs), enabling consolidation and efficient resource utilization. Make sure the system configuration supports your virtualization strategy.

Review Warranty & Support Options

Every used Oracle SPARC M8-8 server from Alta is backed by a warranty offered directly by Alta Technologies. Support coverage includes hardware replacement options and access to technical resources post-sale.
