Probably someone from the unleashed project can give a better answer, but my understanding is mostly unhappiness about the illumos contribution process. The illumos RTI (request to integrate) process is designed to ensure a certain quality

The new OpenSolaris is called illumos. And the CDDL is actually fine. Give it a try :)

Oh yes, the wikis definitly do need some love. Documentation is beeing worked on as far as I know. A lot more of activity is going on in irc on freenode, so if you start playing with your lab server or are just interested in general you mig

In my case illumos provided two things: - zones allowed for a much higher deployment density and better utilisation of our hardware than other virtualization technology would have. - zfs snapshots. We've integrated those into our produ

Oracle has been slowly killing Solaris for some time. At the same time the community has already saved it - this is what illumos is about. It exists and is open source.

There seems to be a lot of odd nostalgia for Solaris in the comments here and on twitter. I think that's missing the point of the article. Yes, Oracle Solaris is dead. But illumos is better, open source, alive and here to stay. You can

Whatever reasons apple had for not using ZFS at that time wasn't some "IP shadow" as the CDDL includes a patent grant. OpenZFS is open source and there is nothing murky or scary about it.

Linux distributions are very similar to each other. Having package management as the main thing that sets them apart. In illumos land these different distributions exist because they have very different design goals and visions. But I agree

The Oracle docs are not really the reference documentation for the open-source stuff, since illumos and Oracle Solaris have diverged quite a bit by now. Some things are implemented in different ways. OpenZFS in illumos has many features not

Oracle Solaris might be dying, and Linux sure has a large market share, but illumos as the open source continuation of OpenSolaris is doing very well. If you enjoyed ZFS, Zones, DTrace and so on in the past there is a good chance that you&#

interesting! The demo video shows "configure" (which is usually not parallelized) also progressing much faster than the local system. I wonder how one would deal with "trusting trust" in such a system.

As an biased illumos user, I believe that: yes, you might be missing out. ;-) To give a quick overview on the ecosystem: everything is based around illumos as the upstream repository. There are different distributions similar what you have
