The know-how and inventiveness of scientific partners sustain the innovative capacity of STRATO.

Development partnerships with SUN, AMD and Oracle
 Both sides, STRATO and its partners, profit from a close relationship. Producers can test and develop their equipment in a real-time environment while STRATO closely cooperates with the developers so that the servers and software are even better adapted to the Web host’s needs.
As for servers, STRATO banks on the newest, energy-efficient technologies from SUN and AMD. The shared Web hosting platform consists of Sun Microsystems T2000-Server with UltraSPARC T1 "Niagara" processors. As for dedicated servers, STRATO has recently bought Highly Efficient AMD Opteron 64-Bit processors.
