Sun / Oracle Third-Party Maintenance & Support
Yes, we provide Sun / Oracle third-party maintenance: Sun / Oracle servers, storage, network and backup hardware supported independently of the OEM contract, including models past their end-of-service-life dates, at 40-70% below OEM renewal pricing. Coverage spans North America, the United Kingdom and Europe, the Middle East, Asia-Pacific and Latin America, with 24/7 engineers, spares held for every model we quote, and no OEM software contract required.
Hardware and software products from Sun / Oracle
- 24x7 support desk. Engineers on call around the clock, with a named escalation owner for every contract.
- 4-hour onsite in major metros. Four-hour onsite response available in major metro areas; next-business-day everywhere else we cover.
- Spares held for every model we quote. Global parts logistics with forward-stocked spares, so a replacement part is already on its way when you call.
- 5+ years past end of service life. We keep hardware supported long after the OEM date, on your retirement schedule rather than theirs.
- No OEM software contract required. Hardware coverage stands on its own. No VMware, Broadcom or other OEM software contract is needed to keep it.
- One contract for the whole rack. Servers, storage, network and backup appliances from any vendor on a single agreement and a single SLA.
- Monthly or multi-year, no lock-in. Month-to-month if you are bridging to a refresh, multi-year discounts if you are not. Cancel on notice.
- Indicative price in 24 hours, firm quote in 48. You get a price range the same business day and a signed quote within two.

Sun / Oracle Support — Third-Party Maintenance for Every Past-EOSL Device
Your Sun and Oracle infrastructure doesn’t stop working the day the OEM end-of-support-life (EOSL) date passes. But the OEM’s support costs can keep climbing — or the support simply ends. We maintain over 174 active Sun/Oracle products, all of which are already past their EOSL dates. That means we specialize in keeping your SPARC servers, StorageTek tape libraries, Oracle Server X7/X5 series, Private Cloud Appliances, ZFS Storage, and more running reliably, at 40–70% less than comparable OEM support contracts.
Why third-party support for Sun / Oracle?
- Coverage past EOSL – Every product we list has already passed its official EOSL. We don’t stop supporting a line because the vendor did. Examples:
- StorageTek LTO Tape Drive (EOSL 2025-11-30)
- SPARC T7-1 (EOSL 2025-08-31)
- Oracle Private Cloud Appliance X6 (EOSL 2025-05-31)
- Oracle Server X7-8 (EOSL 2025-02-28)
- SPARC T7-4 (EOSL 2024-06-30)
- Oracle ZFS Storage ZS5-4, Racked (EOSL 2024-05-31)
- LTO6 (EOSL 2023-12-31)
- 24/7 engineering support – Real engineers, not call centers. All have OEM training and hands-on experience with Sun/Oracle hardware and software.
- Same-day replacement parts options – When a component fails, we ship the replacement part the same business day. Our spares inventory includes current and legacy Sun/Oracle parts.
- Flexible SLAs – Choose response times and resolution targets that match your uptime needs, not a one-size-fits-all contract.
- No forced migrations – Keep your existing Solaris, Oracle Linux, and hardware configurations exactly as they are. No pressure to upgrade or migrate to a newer platform.
Who is this for?
IT directors, infrastructure managers, and procurement leads who:
- Want to extend the life of fully depreciated Sun/Oracle assets.
- Need predictable, lower costs for support while maintaining service levels.
- Are tired of paying premium OEM prices for hardware that is no longer being actively developed.
Ready to cut costs and keep coverage?
Contact us for a quote on your specific Sun/Oracle products. We’ll match your current support scope and deliver it at a fraction of the OEM price — backed by OEM-trained engineers and a parts supply chain that covers dozens of past-EOSL models.

Sun / Oracle Third-Party Support: Frequently Asked Questions
Do you support Sun/Oracle hardware that is already past EOSL?
Yes. All 174 active Sun/Oracle products in our catalog are already past their manufacturer EOSL dates. We can maintain coverage for them immediately.
How much can we save by switching from OEM support?
Third-party support from 3rd Party Support typically costs 40-70% less than the equivalent OEM contract or renewal.
What SLAs are available for Sun/Oracle gear?
We offer flexible SLAs. You can choose response times, resolution targets, and parts replacement options (including same-day) to match your operational needs.
Are your engineers familiar with Sun/Oracle systems?
Our support engineers are OEM-trained and have direct experience with SPARC, StorageTek, Oracle Server, Private Cloud Appliance, and ZFS lines — including legacy models.
Which specific Sun/Oracle products do you cover?
Our catalog includes representative products such as StorageTek LTO Tape Drive, SPARC T7-1/T7-2/T7-4, Oracle Private Cloud Appliance X5/X6, Oracle Server X5-4 and X7-8, ZFS Storage ZS5-series, VSM7, ZDLRA X7, and LTO6. Full list available on our product page.
Can I keep my existing Solaris or Oracle Linux installations?
Yes. Third-party support does not require any software or hardware migration. You keep your current operating system and configuration.
