Sun Microsystems has completed the acquisition of Tarantella, Inc.

Tarantella, is a provider of software enabling organisations to access and manage information, data and applications across multiple platforms, networks and devices.

Putting Sun's R&D and marketing might behind Tarantella's technology allows the industry to deliver secure access to data and applications anywhere on virtually any Java enabled device as a service. Sun believes this capability will be a catalyst for accelerating the adoption of a utility computing model for the desktop and is extending an invitation to service providers, OEMs, device manufacturers and others to build on these new business opportunities.
