Sun Microsystems to Provide
Technology Infrastructure for
T-Mobile's Next-Generation Customer Portal
Java Software
Solutions Support t-zones
Santa Clara, Calif., and London, August 8, 2005 -- Sun Microsystems
(NASDAQ:SUNW), the creator and leading advocate of Java technology,
today announced that it will be supporting T-Mobile International's
next-generation service delivery portal. Sun is providing T-Mobile
with software and hardware including: the Solaris Operating System
(OS), Sun Java System Identity Manager, Sun Java System Directory
Server Enterprise Edition, Sun StorEdge storage systems and Sun
Fire servers. The portal will improve the provisioning feeds used
to store customer records and service definitions, and process
purchases via the T-Mobile customer portal across Europe.
t-zones, the customer portal, provides subscribers with access to
downloads of games,
music, news and sports coverage
from third party content providers, as well as ring-tones and
wallpapers exclusive to T-Mobile. Sun will provide a number of
business applications to support the new portal, which will be
hosted by LogicaCMG.
Laptop Battery "Since 2001 T-Mobile has developed and operated a single portal
for the majority of its European operating companies; some while
ago, we recognised the need to substantively reduce the ongoing
costs of both the development and operation of this service. This
deal allows us to migrate to a truly commoditised portal solution,
underpinned by innovative hardware, software and hosting services
and produce a truly high availability, best-of-class
third-generation portal at substantively reduced cost," said Kevin
Cunnington, T-Mobile's executive vice president for Portals and
Portal Infrastructure.

Thinkpad The Sun applications, which include the Java System Identity
Manager,will enable the feeds from T-Mobile to its subscribers,
estimated to be up to 20 million. In addition the portal will use
the Java System Directory Server Enterprise Edition to store up to
10 million customer records, and purchases in excess of 1,000
supplier service definitions. The directory server will also be
used to control the appearance of the portal to customers and
process purchases of games, music and news via the portal.

Microsoft "We have worked closely with LogicaCMG and T-Mobile over the
past year to develop a solution which could meet all of the
requirements for the t-zones customer portal. The new system will
help T-Mobile to achieve true customer satisfaction, with increased
customer loyalty and tailored products and services," said Darrell
Jordan-Smith, Vice President of Global Telecommunications, Sun
Microsystems. "In addition to improving the customer service, the
portal will provide T-Mobile with additional revenue generating
opportunities and help to drive down administrative costs."
