Fujsitsu also does SPARC, and contrary to HP-UX, people still do buy Solaris.

Finally, it is up to Intel and AMD to come up with hardware memory tagging, so far they have messed up all attempts, with MPX being the last short lived one.

It's good info, and I wouldn't rush a migration off of SPARC systems if I was already using them, but slow death is still death. It was already worrying that workstations were killed off by Sun before the Oracle acquisition; it seems quite clear that no one has been serious about spreading adoption of the architecture for more than two decades now.
