Solaris presentation at Colby College

Yesterday I had an excellent opportunity to present DTrace and ZFS at Colby College . There were folks from the CS department and IT dept. It was very heartening to see the interest in Solaris. The lecture was part of their CS Colloquium.

Presenting to CS students is always a challange. They seem to come up with a unique set of questions. The student generally are not "corrupted" by the rigors of  IT world and they tend to ask more "why" rather than "how" questions.

After a pretty detailed presentation my resources slide had just one entry http://opensolaris.org/  Everything you need to know about DTrace and ZFS is in OpenSolaris. If you've not been there at OpenSolaris recently check it out.
