Changing the Way You Look at Storage - Free Startup Webinar

Join our rock star, Angelo Rajadurai, in this free webinar that will focus on ZFS. ZFS is a new kind of file storage subsystem that provides simple administration, transactional semantics, end-to-end data integrity, and immense scalability. ZFS is not an incremental improvement to existing technology; it is a fundamentally new approach to data management. ZFS also combines, Disks, DRAM and Flash into one storage subsystem easily providing the best overall price performance for storage. Come learn about ZFS and its benefits. See a demo of how easy it is to use and administrate. Hear from a startup on their experience with ZFS.

Date: Wednesday, October 21, 2009
Time: 8:00 am PDT / 11:00 am EDT / 4:00 pm UK / 5:00 pm CEST / 8:30 pm India (New Delhi) (check timezone)
Speaker: Angelo Rajadurai, Sr. Technical Evangelist, Sun Startup Essentials

Scale your Solaris web stack by using the right tools

Dear startups,

scale your Solaris based solution to any level you need to with the right tools. Our engineers are maintaining the"Solaris Performance Primer" with all freely available Solaris tools on the web. Bookmark this page if you need to know:

  • how do I monitor entire farms of systems with a freely available tool like dimstat
  • which process is overruning the disk and which file is it accessing?
  • Do I have enough threads and process to be able to exhaust our massive parallel T-class systems?
  • Am I overloading my network interface?
  • how to visually monitor Solaris systems for all the key parameters?
