More About This Book

Overview

OpenSolaris is a rapidly evolving operating system with roots in Solaris 10, suitable for deployment on laptops, desktop workstations, storage appliances, and data center servers from the smallest single–purpose systems to the largest enterprise–class systems. The growing OpenSolaris community now has hundreds of thousands of participants and users in government agencies, commercial businesses, and universities, with more than 100 user groups around the world contributing to the use and advancement of OpenSolaris. New releases of OpenSolaris become available every six months, with contributions from both Sun engineers and OpenSolaris community members; this book covers the OpenSolaris 2008.11 release.

Pro OpenSolaris was written to demonstrate that you can host your open source applications and solutions on OpenSolaris, taking advantage of its advanced features such as containers and other forms of virtualization, the ZFS file system, and DTrace. It's assumed that you are already fairly knowledgeable about developing on Linux systems, so the authors give an overview of the similarities and differences between Linux and OpenSolaris, and then present details on how to use the Service Management Facility (SMF), ZFS, zones, and even a bit of DTrace. They also provide pointers to the many project communities associated with new OpenSolaris features. Special focus is given to web development using familiar applications such as Apache, Tomcat, and MySQL, along with the NetBeans IDE, and showing you how to exploit some of OpenSolaris's unique technologies.

What you’ll learn

  • Discover the secrets of the ZFS, the most powerful file system ever conceived
  • Explore OpenSolaris AMP (Apache, MySQL, PHP) and GlassFish in the context of Web 2.0 and Linux/Solaris, respectively
  • Familiarize yourself with the new security administration features of OpenSolaris, including changes in DTrace

Who this book is for

Linux system administrators and programmers who would like to know what they have missed since Solaris became an open-source operating system.

    Author Comment

    Apress' Pro OpenSolaris is the second English language book to be
    published specifically about Sun Microsystems' OpenSolaris open
    source operating system. The first was the comprehensive,1000-page,
    OpenSolaris Bible published by Wiley in March 2009. That book
    purposely covered all aspects of OpenSolaris for those with only
    basic familiarity with Solaris and UNIX as well as for those with
    greater administration and developer experience; it reviewed desktop
    tools, networking, shell programming, and system administration
    along with the unique features of OpenSolaris.

    Pro OpenSolaris, published in April 2009 and based on the OpenSolaris
    2008.11 release, assumes the reader is already comfortable with the
    user and development environments of GNOME and Linux; it focuses
    primarily on the key OpenSolaris features that should be learned
    and exploited for Web development. It includes an extensive chapter
    detailing a sample Web stack project based on the zones, ZFS,
    security, and SMF topics introduced in the preceding chapters. The
    book also highlights relevant online references and resources for
    further learning. Although all of the information about OpenSolaris
    is available on myriad Web sites, books such as Pro OpenSolaris
    give you a roadmap and recommended sequence of what to learn first.
    It also strongly emphasizes that open source solutions can be
    effectively hosted on OpenSolaris as well as on Linux.
