Download Solaris Express, Developer Edition, and Join a Community of Excellence

It’s a great time to be part of the Solaris community. On both SPARC- and x64/x86-based systems, Solaris is faster, more secure, and more reliable than ever. And because Sun opens Solaris source code via the OpenSolaris Project, everyone can benefit from the work and insight of creative, committed Solaris developers.

Sun has always put developers first. The latest example is Solaris Express, Developer Edition, a software bundle that includes the Solaris OS, Sun’s award-winning developer tools, scores of open source applications, and more--all at no charge. The bundle gives developers everything they need to be effective with Solaris.

This week on SDNtv, Sun’s Don Kretsch, director, Developer Tools, explains why Solaris and other Sun tools provide the best choices for developers. Hear first hand.

To get started with Solaris Express, Developer Edition, download the bundle or request a free DVD Kit.

To dive even deeper, be sure to attend OpenSolaris Day at CommunityOne next month. At this companion event to the 2007 JavaOne Conference, the growing OpenSolaris community is gathering to discuss dynamic tracing, virtualization, and more.

Also this week on SDNtv, the Geek Gadget Guru chills out with a USB-powered beverage cooler from CoolIT Systems.

Next week, SDN Channel previews a few of the hot topics to be covered at CommunityOne.

Hello; SUN Studio is a very cool product: It would be really nice to see it running natively on FreeBSD. There was a port of Dtrace but the licensing of some headers got in the way. In any case I am pretty sure that if a port were available, the FreeBSD guys would make an effort to clean all GNUisms from the kernel. Who knows ... maybe it will make it easier for SUN to take some of the nice features that FreeBSD has ;-).
