OS Features outweigh lack of harware support


Hardware compatibility should not be the reason one chooses an OS, unless you are more concerned with the hardware you are running on than the services and applications you look to provide. As a system manager of both Linux and Solaris due to the features, ease of administration, upgrade compatability, rock-solid stability and large ISV support causes me to choose Solaris over Linux in many situations. The hardware choice is secondary to the OS.

Rating: 6.8
Verdict

Significant performance, availability and feature enhancements make Solaris 10 an automatic choice for existing Sun customers. But as an alternative to Linux, it doesn’t yet deliver.
