Ian Murdock Talks About OpenSolaris’ Upcoming First Release | Think Future Group | 04/21/2008
Sun's Ian Murdock gave a presentation about OpenSolaris at LugRadio Live this past weekend. He explained how OpenSolaris reflects Sun's changing platform strategy and also discussed some of the technical attributes that differentiate OpenSolaris from Linux. Murdock explained that Sun's traditional strengths in the enterprise are being overshadowed by significant changes in the market and in software adoption processes. He pointed out that much of the success that Linux has enjoyed in the server room is a result of its increasing popularity on the desktop among system administrators and other IT specialists. This is because people tend to deploy the technologies that are most accessible to them, he argues.
Solaris ZFS: Here Comes The Hammer | Blog: On The Record, Daniel Berthiaume | 04/18/2008
At the Sun Tech Days event this month in St. Petersburg, Russia, Sun's Jim Hughes found a unique way to... um... hammer home a point about the capabilities of Solaris ZFS. Wielding a sledgehammer and standing in front of approximately 2,000 audience members... actually, the video tells the story better than words ever could. Check out ZFS "Hammer Time" and see for yourself.
Sun xVM Ops Center | ZDNet, Dan Kusnetzky | 04/18/2008
I’ve long known that Sun is one of the few suppliers that has an entry in nearly every virtualization software category listed in the Kusnetzky Group Model. This not only allows the company to address organization’s requirements at almost every level. This also means that I don’t have a chance to address everything they’re doing here........Here’s a bit about Sun’s xVM Ops Center and my take on what clearly is a powerful product for Sun’s own Solaris, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) environments.
Sun Updates Streaming System, Adds Solaris Support | The Unix Guardian, Timothy Prickett-Morgan | 04/17/2008
A year ago, Sun Microsystems launched the Streaming System, a cluster of Linux-based application servers and storage servers and a new video stream switch, that Sun co-founder Andy Bechtolsheim was creating when he was working in stealth mode at Kealia, a company Sun acquired in February 2004 to get Bechtolsheim back on board and to flesh out its server, storage, and switch product lines. This week, Sun is making some of the modules of the Streaming System software available on Solaris as well as Linux and is also allowing it to run on smaller Sun boxes.
BeleniX 0.7 OpenSolaris Desktop | Blog: Phoronix | 04/16/2008
Long before Sun's Project Indiana came about, BeleniX has been one of our favorite GNU/Solaris distributions. BeleniX has been a LiveCD based upon OpenSolaris, but with yesterday's release of BeleniX 0.7 it is now a source-level derivative of the Project Indiana blend of OpenSolaris. Today we're taking a quick look at this new release.
