• SunOS is a Unix-branded operating system• Developed by Sun Microsystems• Marketed under the brand name Solaris.

What is Solaris OS

Ashinka Sadeepani
SunOS is a Unix-branded operating system developed by Sun Microsystems for their workstation and server computer systems. TheSunOS name is usually only used to refer to versions 1.0 to 4.1.4, which were based on BSD, while versions 5.0 and later are based on UNIX System V Release 4, and are marketed under the brand name Solaris.

• Free and open/close source software• Integrated and tested with the Oracle software stack• Proven mission-critical capabilities:

– Performance– reliability– security

• Investment protection for your mission-critical applications

Overview

• Developed by SUN Microsystem• 1980s – introduced RISC(Reduced Instruction Set Computer)

chip called SPARC (Scalable Processor Architecture) by SUN• 1983 - first SUN OS released • Solaris is one implementation of the UNIX operating system• Marketed under the brand name Solaris

History

Ashinka Sadeepani
Solaris is one implementation of the UNIX operating system that draws on both the System V (AT&T) and Berkeley (BSD) traditions.
Ashinka Sadeepani
Many desktop computer users have never heard of the word “Sun” in the context of computing, nor are they usually familiar with the term “Solaris” as an operating environment.

• Heterogeneous computing environments

• Standardization and clear interfaces

Solaris operating Environment

Ashinka Sadeepani
Heterogeneous computing refers to systems that use more than one kind of processor or cores. These systems gain performance or energy efficiency not just by adding the same type of processors, but by adding dissimilar processors, usually incorporating specialized processing capabilities to handle particular tasks.
