Charon-SSP (Charon Virtual SPARC) with VE Licensing is part of a family of emulators from Stromasys that extend the life of mission-critical legacy applications by decoupling them from outdated, end-of-life servers such as Sun SPARC, VAX, Alpha, PDP11, and HP/PA-RISC systems. Charon-SSP replicates the virtual SPARC hardware layer onto industry-standard x86 computer systems. It is fully binary compatible with SPARC hardware, including storage, Ethernet, and serial line I/O. The Charon-SSP virtual layer behaves like SPARC hardware from the Sun4m, Sun4u, and Sun4v families. It supports versions from SunOS 4.1 up to Solaris 11.4. This compatibility allows applications to be quickly re-hosted in the Charon-SSP virtualized environment, bypassing the need for software code conversion, changes, or replacement. Charon-SSP for Virtual SPARC with VE License is a specific version that permits licensing at the local Linux instance or on its Linux VM, eliminating the need to access Charon-SSP via a public network. Note on Licensing: Solaris is provided on a "Bring-Your-Own-License" (BYOL) basis for Charon-SSP. Customers must provide their own Solaris ISO image for the initial installation, after which the original filesystems from the legacy SPARC system can be migrated. Refer to our documentation under the Usage section for more information about this process. Additionally, a bare-metal version of Charon-SSP is available. Please contact us directly for more information. Important: Stromasys requires customers to review their specific licensing agreements as they pertain to Sun/Oracle SPARC and Solaris.
