Whats New in Solaris
15© 2011 Oracle Corporation - Proprietary and Confidential
The Operating System MattersInnovation Pays
• 20+ years development• Leading-edge innovation• Scalability and stability• Get the most out of
systems, applications
16
Solaris 10 Set the Standard
• Scalability and performance– Throughput, response time
• Availability– Uptime, reduced maintenance windows, risk mitigation
• Security– Secure by default, integrated, no performance hits,
no compatibility hits
• Virtualization– Zones– LDOMs– Domains
“Most Innovative Server OS”
17
Oracle Solaris 11 Raises the Bar
• Scalability and performance– Designed for next-generation systems, workloads
• Availability– Dramatic reduction in planned downtime
• Security– Extend protection into the cloud
• Efficiency– Manageability
• Virtualization in every dimension– Network, CPU, data
18© 2011 Oracle Corporation - Proprietary and Confidential
Software Lifecycle Management
• Image Packaging System– Dependency checking,
package versioning,updates not patches,OS minimization
• Network-basedrepositories– Get just what you need– Establish local repositories– Multiple repository support for updates
• Snapshot rollback– Oracle Solaris ZFS as root/boot filesystem– Safe online updates– Fast, “free”
19© 2011 Oracle Corporation - Proprietary and Confidential
Data Management
• Oracle Solaris ZFS:default file / storage management system– New services: deduplication and encryption– Manages both file and block data with tunable performance– Integration with installer/boot environment
• Hybrid storage pools: flash + traditional disk• Support for use as SCSI target
– Multiple transport protocols (iSCSI, Fibre Channel, InfiniBand...)
• Complete Windows file sharing interoperability– Fully integrated CIFS; Active Directory integration
20© 2011 Oracle Corporation - Proprietary and Confidential
Solaris Zones
• Integrated with ZFS boot environments and IPS– Sync software instead of patch
• Delegated administration model per zone• Enhanced observability within a zone
– Memory and CPU utilization– Total utilization and per-zone breakdown
• Network virtualization and resource control• Oracle Solaris 10 Zones for business continuity
– Hosts Oracle Solaris 10 10/09 or later environments– Supports P2V and V2V, with “pre-flight checks”– Shared and exclusive IP stacks

23 Copyright © 2011, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
A Superior High Availability EnvironmentEarlier Warning, Better Context, Minimized Impact
• Earlier Warning: Enterprise Manager– Monitors & detects application issues to
address before they become problems– Avoid HA events, minimized impact
• Better Context: Guest Clustering– Application-aware response– Middleware clustering– Real Application Clusters– Oracle HA Clusterware
• Virtualization Layer-HA– Only HA available from virtualization
products: not application aware– Simple, reliable, automated restart after
complete VM failure
