OpenSolaris 2009.06 Released

,----[ Quote ]
| As we reported last week, the release of OpenSolaris 2009.06 would come on 
| Monday, and sure enough, it has been released by Sun Microsystems. The 
| OpenSolaris 2009.06 release presents network virtualization support with 
| Crossbow, SPARC support, Intel Xeon 5500 series hardware support, MySQL and 
| PHP DTrace probes, improved usability with its package management system, and 
| much more.

OpenSolaris: Foreshadowing Next Solaris?

,----[ Quote ]
| The new release is not considered by Sun to be a replacement for its flagship 
| Solaris 10 operating system, though Sun is now extending commercial support 
| for OpenSolaris 2009.06 for up to five years. The 2009.06 release comes at a 
| critical time for Sun and is likely the last OpenSolaris release before Sun 
| is acquired by Oracle (NASDAQ: ORCL) later this year.

Linux is better. It performs better (see below).

OpenSolaris vs. Linux Kernel Benchmarks

,----[ Quote ]
| In a majority of the tests, Ubuntu came out ahead of Nexenta CP2, which is
| based upon largely the same packages but incorporates some of OpenSolaris at
| its core. In some of the tests where Ubuntu took the first place position,
| the lead over Nexenta was very evident and huge.
