Sun Studio will be present at Oracle OpenWorld 2009
Oracle OpenWorld (OOW) is coming up Oct 11-15 at Moscone Center, San Francisco and Sun is a major sponsor this year. Sun will be showcasing Solaris, Java and Glassfish (follow the links here for a list of session in each of these areas. Follow this link for the complete set of sessions, along with speakers, that Sun will be showcasing there).
Sun Studio will have a session on Porting applications to Solaris and Maximizing Performance (the first part is about the SourceJuicer project in OpenSolaris and the second part is about Sun Studio Compilers and Tools). There is also a demo station. This should be an interesting experience, trying to understand what OOW attendees are looking for .
For our part, we will be emphasizing Sun Studio's strengths and focus areas:

Optimized C, C++ & Fortran compilers and highly tuned libraries (SPARC & x86)
Advanced Development tools particularly for Parallel programming (Thread and Performance Analysis)
Solaris DTrace-based visualization tools

We have three Demos ready to go; all are based on IDE, Dlight (follow this link for a screencast), Debugging and Analyzer features. I will continue to blog about what I see there and my impressions/takeaways.
