One of the success stories on the Sun web site that documents successful customer implementations is on Cirqit, a consulting and software company focused on the printing industry. Cirqit provides print procurement analysis and software for e-procurement and digital asset management such as estimate management, bid evaluation and order placement.

Cirqit uses Sun EnterpriseTM Servers, Sun UltraTM Servers, Sun StorEdgeTM Disk Arrays, and SolarisTM Operating Environment (OE) to server their customers. Cirqit is in the process of gaining SunToneSM certification. The Application Service Provider (ASP) service that Cirqit provides its customers leverages the Internet to help businesses save money with their printing needs and helps printing vendors by identifying customers whose needs are best matched with their capabilities.

The developers at Cirqit built their applications to determine the most efficient equipment and process for a printing task. Cirqit built its configuration in the three-tiered architecture recommended by Sun. There is an illustration of the Cirqit configuration online.
