Solaris x86 Solutions Program
Promote your Solaris x86 products and your partnership with SunSoft to thousands of
Solaris users through a cost-effective joint marketing program for Catalyst members.
Build demand and increase visibility for your products through the Solaris x86 Solutions
Program, available to developers who market Solaris products for the x86 platform.
The Solaris x86 Solutions Program is designed to heighten customer awareness of third-
party products available on Solaris x86. The program enables Solaris x86 developers to
easily and economically produce and distribute a solution data sheet jointly with SunSoft.
Through this program, Catalyst provides turnkey data sheet production services,
distribution to interested buyers, and a supply of data sheets for your own promotions.
Solution data sheets feature dual company logos, describe Solaris x86 and your product's
features and benefits, and communicate the added advantages of your Solaris x86
implementation.
Solaris x86 Solutions data sheets receive broad distribution - to developers, resellers
and end users - through SunSoft channels and promotions, and through online media,
including the Internet and Catalyst CDware. To enable independent software and hardware
developers to effortlessly promote their x86 solutions, Catalyst offers a flexible, simple
collateral production method, and several automated distribution mechanisms. You simply
provide information on your products and the program fee.
