Consulting firm Accenture announced a deal Wednesday to use Sun Microsystems server software in computing system designs for specific industries. The company previously resold Sun's software, but now also will develop specific products using it and place some of its staff at Sun to develop expertise, said Accenture Chief Technology Officer Don Rippert.
The pact involves Sun's software for identity management and services-oriented architecture, the companies said. In addition, Accenture will look at other software partnership areas in the future, Rippert said.
