Solaris Systems

CAST’s partnership with Sun Microsystems has been extensive and involved Sun designating CAST a Center of Excllence in GeoComputation. Sun Enterprise Class systems played a central role in the award-winning Geostor project and, later, the University of Arkansas Spatial Library.  Sun’s Enterprise class servers have always played a major role in infrastructure support and research capabilities. Serving large databases and imagery requires the throughput of these Enterprise class servers and fibre connected fast disk arrays.

Slackware Systems

CAST also heavily leverages the stability and flexibilty of Slackware Linux. We maintain several storage servers mainly accessed via windows clients, and several application servers hosting various GNU applications. Slackware Linux has also been used to successfully repurpose several servers, which saves money as well as breathes new life into older equipment.
