make it good, at
least make it look
good”
-Bill Gates-

4. INTRODUCTION
What is an operating system?
Anoperating system is the most important
software that runs on a computer. It manages the
computer's memory, processes, and all of its
software and hardware. It also allows you
to communicate with the computer without
knowinghow to speak thecomputer's
"language." Without an operating system,a
computer is useless.

5. SOLARIS
Solarisis thecomputeroperating systemthatSunMicrosystems
provides forits familyofScalableProcessorArchitecture-based
processorsaswell asforIntel-basedprocessors.
Sunhashistoricallydominatedthelarge UNIXworkstationmarket.
As the Internetgrew in the early1990s,Sun'sSPARC/Solaris
systemsbecamethemostwidely installedservers forWebsites.
Sunemphasizesthesystem's availability(meaning itseldom crashes),its large numberoffeatures,
anditsInternet-orienteddesign. Sunadvertises thatitslatestversion, the Solaris8Operating
Environment,is "theleading UNIX environment"today.

6. Solarisis knownforits scalability,especially onSPARCsystems,andfororiginatingmany
innovativefeaturessuch asDTrace,ZFSandTimeSlider.
Solariswashistoricallydeveloped asproprietary
software.Subsequently,in June 2005,Sun
Microsystemsreleased most ofthecodebase, under
theCDDLlicense, andfoundedtheOpenSolaris, open
sourceproject.
WithOpenSolaris,Sunwantedtobuilda developer and
user communityaroundthesoftware.Afterthe
acquisitionofSunMicrosystemsin January2010,Oracle
decided todiscontinuethe OpenSolarisdistributionand
the development model.

7. HISTORY
In 1987,AT&TCorporationandSunannouncedthattheywerecollaboratingon a
projecttomerge themostpopularUnix variantson themarketatthat
time:BSD,SystemV,andXenix. Thisbecame Unix SystemV Release 4 (SVR4).
On September 4,1991,Sun announcedthat it would replace its existing BSD-derived Unix,SunOS
4,with one based on SVR4.This was identified internallyas SunOS 5, but a new marketingname
was introduced at the same time: Solaris 2.
AlthoughSunOS4.1.xmicro releases were retroactively namedSolaris 1 bySun,the
Solarisnameis used almostexclusively torefertothe SVR4-derivedSunOS5.0 andlater
Solaris11.2.

8. Features
Its availability.

It is builtfornetworkcomputing.As partofthe firstandmost successfulWebserver system in
history,the latestSolarissystems arebuilton thecompany'sexperience withearlyWebsites and
networkdemands.

9. It includes securityfeatures.Theseinclude supportforIPSec,Kerberos,AMI, andsmartcards.
Sunprovides threeextensions for its Solaris
operating system:
The EasyAccessServer,which is designed torunin anetworkthatalsohasWindowsNT
systems
The EnterpriseServer, which is aimedatthe"business-critical"environment,and
includessupportforclustering
TheInternetService Provider(ISP) Server

10. Advantages
Reboot is not required for Solaris so it can run 24/7.
It support zfs file system.
It canhandle many users at a time.
In Solaris wehavemany good backuptools.
Fully virus protected.

11. Disadvantages
This OS is not userfriendly.
It is notrecommended to run Solaris on other architectures.
Lack of goodGUI.
Not a OSfor homeusers.

12. System Requirements
2 GBminimumfor thesmallest set of packages
6 GBfor themostpopularSolaris packages
Minimumof512MBRAM,1.5GB RAMor Higher is Recommended
32and64bit systems based onAMD,Inteland VIAx86 CPUs.

SunUltra SPARC-basedprocessors (sun4varchitecture)
Note: Memoryrequirementswill vary depending onthe application software being used, system configurations
and the numberof clients/users. Refer to the release notes for details of minimumand recommendedmemoryfor
different configurations
