Oracle Solaris: Virtualization

Oracle provides a complete virtualization solution from the desktop to the data center. Oracle Solaris virtualization includes the Oracle Solaris Containers feature, dynamic domains and Oracle VM Server for SPARC (formerly Logical Domains).

Because Oracle Solaris Containers is an integrated part of Oracle Solaris, it ties into other powerful features such as Oracle Solaris ZFS to provide ease of administration and support smooth transitions from previous generations of Oracle Solaris.

	BENEFITS
	Rapidly move or replicate applications—Containers provides the ability to detach/attach and to clone in conjunction with ZFS file system cloning Lower administrative costs—Safely consolidate multiple applications on a single system; Containers provide fault isolation, security isolation, and dynamic resource allocation Reduce conflicts among applications running on the same system—A practically limitless number of virtual environments can be set up, each with its own separate system resources and assignments Minimize fault propagation and unplanned downtime—Oracle Solaris Containers are fully integrated with the Oracle Solaris Predictive Self Healing feature, providing for automatic recovery in the face of unexpected interruptions Enhance security—Unauthorized access into one application cannot be exploited to attack other Containers or the global system administration environment Highly efficient—Unlike hypervisor-based virtualization, Containers run within a single OS instance; there is little to no additional overhead with running applications, and a greater number of applications can be consolidated onto a single system with bare-metal performance yielding across-the-board cost savings
