On February 10, Sun previewed the Solaris 10 Operating System,
the upcoming version for systems based on UltraSPARC(r) and x86
microprocessors. New features include: optimal system
utilization, enhanced security, more system control, more
flexibility and more diagnostics. Key among these features will
be N1(tm) Grid Containers, Predictive Self-Healing technologies
and security enhancements.
This talk will focus on some of the key features in the upcoming
Solaris 10 release and on early-access programs that make these
features available to customers today, with additional features
added until the final release.
