Sun Updates Streaming System, Adds Solaris Support
,----[ Quote ]
| A year ago, Sun Microsystems launched the Streaming System, a cluster of
| Linux-based application servers and storage servers and a new video stream
| switch, that Sun co-founder Andy Bechtolsheim was creating when he was
| working in stealth mode at Kealia, a company Sun acquired in February 2004 to
| get Bechtolsheim back on board and to flesh out its server, storage, and
| switch product lines. This week, Sun is making some of the modules of the
| Streaming System software available on Solaris as well as Linux and is also
| allowing it to run on smaller Sun boxes.
