Sun Microsystems, Inc. ( Santa Clara , CA ) and Microsoft Corp. ( Redmond , WA ; http://www.microsoft.com) continue their ongoing alliance with the official opening of the Sun/Microsoft Interoperability Center on Microsoft'sRedmondcampus for optimizing Microsoft applications on Sun Fire x64 server systems and storage. They also announced the availability of the Sun Infrastructure Solution for Microsoft Exchange Server 2007.
The Sun/Microsoft Interoperability Center will include optimization of Microsoft applications on Sun x64 systems and storage, and promotion of full interoperability in application areas such as virtualization, Java technology, systems management, and identity. The Center will also collaborate with authorized Sun Solution Centers to support customers in running their own proofs-of-concept testing.
The Sun/Microsoft Interoperability Center serves as a working lab for tuning, benchmarking, and interoperability solutions creation. It will be designed to include a demo and lab space, the ability to certify Java Platform Enterprise Edition (Java EE) and Java Platform Standard Edition (Java SE), including Sun's Java Runtime Environment (JRE) software for and with Microsoft operating environments and applications; collaboration to help enable cross-platform server virtualization, including Windows Hyper-V and Sun xVM software; and cross-company collaboration to allow Sun Ray thin client software to provide a first-rate virtual desktop for the Windows environment and supports Windows technologies.
One of the first results of the recently increased collaboration is the availability of the Sun Infrastructure Solution for Microsoft Exchange Server 2007. The two companies have also created a basis for tighter interoperability between Java Platform Enterprise Edition (Java EE), the .NET Framework 3.0 and Windows Communication Foundation in Sun's Web services interoperability technologies (Project Tango).

Sun Microsystems also previously announced the availability of its new Sun Role Manager software, formerly known as VaauRBACx , enabling customers to automate and streamline access control compliance — a typically difficult, complex and manual process.
