  Solaris Operating Environment - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Solaris is a computer operating system developed by Sun Microsystems.
Solaris was also ported to the PowerPC architecture (PReP platform) for version 2.5.1, but the port was cancelled almost as soon as it was released.
Solaris is tightly integrated with Sun's SPARC hardware, and is designed and marketed as a combined package.

 Better by Design - The Solaris Operating Environment   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
The operating environment is built with a small kernel that provides the core set of features required by applications, the CDE windowing system, and their shared libraries.
In the Solaris environment, shared libraries are not part of the kernel; they are part of the user process -- and thus an error in a shared library has the potential to bring down the applications which use it, but not the Solaris environment itself.
The Solaris Operating Environment is better because it is based on a carefully-designed architecture that is compact and built to grow and extend in an evolutionary manner.

Solaris is being released under the Common Development and Distribution License, an OSI-certified Open-Source license.
Solaris was also ported to the PowerPC architecture for version 2.5.1, but the port was cancelled almost as soon as it was released.
The most recent versions of Solaris (as of early 2005) are Solaris 7, the 64-bit Solaris 8, Solaris 9 (released May 22, 2002), and Solaris 10 (released February 1, 2005).

 sun solaris 9 operating environment, detailed view
Solaris 9 software is designed to optimize memory management in the way that best suites the particular servers on which it is running.
The Solaris 9 Operating Environment is designed with a small, compact kernel that limits the exposure to errors that can crash a system.
Common libraries and build environments, such as libxml, glib, and GTK+, are integrated in the Solaris Operating Environment to streamline source code development across Linux and Solaris environments.

 Solaris 8 Operating Environment
Solaris Web Start Wizards software simplifies the installation, setup, and administration of applications written for both Solaris and Java technology-based environments with point-and-click ease of use.
Because Java technology is tightly integrated into the operating environment, it utilizes multithreading capabilities to deliver the scalability, performance, and stability needed for enterprise applications.
The Solaris 8 platform is also among the first major software environments to support IPv6, the standard that allows the Internet to scale and deliver a virtually unlimited number of connections.

The movement from multilanguage to multiscript to multilingual implies an increased level of complexity in the underlying operating environment.
The Solaris operating environment is a single internationalized binary that is localized into various languages (for example, French, Japanese, and Chinese) to support the language and cultural conventions of each language.
In the Solaris operating environment internationalization framework, Unicode is "just another codeset." By adopting and implementing codeset independence to design, applications can handle different codesets without extensive code rework to support specific languages.

 Understanding Solaris 9 Operating Environment Directory Services > NIS and NIS+ Overview   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
The Solaris 8 OE provided a back-end to the Name Service Switch (NSS) that allowed Solaris OE clients to obtain naming information from a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) enabled directory service.
That is, you can mix and match master and slave servers from different vendors and support NIS clients that run on different operating environments.
The Solaris 9 OE provides synchronization between NIS+ and LDAP with the introduction of an enhanced rpc.nisd process.

This course will cover what improvements are in store for Solaris 9, programs that will allow Sun customers to test drive future software technologies from Sun, discuss features for the next generation of Solaris and teach users the concept and use of Solaris Zones which will be available in the next generation of Solaris.
Solaris Zones provides a means of creating virtualized operating system environments within an instance of Solaris, allowing one or more processes to run in isolation from other activity on the system.
Due to the discussion of these future Solaris technologies a non-disclosure agreement will need to be signed in order to participate.

Introduction Objectives The aim of this book is not to be just another "Guide for System Administrators," but rather a workshop manual that describes the tasks that need to be performed to build a complex network using the standard components delivered with the system.
For example, we start by adding users onto a single system, add the system to the network, move on to configuring services such as NFS and NTP (which rely on the newly configured network), and so forth until we have built a complex of networked machines using NIS, NTP, and a multitude of other services.
We describe an environment consisting of a number of networked machines, including connections to the outside world.
