OpenIndiana Hipster 2018.10: Solaris is a UNIX-based operating system and designed by Sun Microsystems.
Η permission Solaris use is closed, but recently large parts of the system have been licensed to open source (CCDL) by configuring OpenSolaris.
Solaris is supported in the following architectures: SPARC, x86 and x86-64. The graphical system environment is GNOME (Solaris 10), while the CDE is also available.
OpenIndiana is now the sequel to Sun Indiana project. While OpenSolaris was intended to provide the source of OS/Net, the Indiana project aims to provide a complete Solaris-like distribution around OpenSolaris.
OpenIndiana announced 2010 when Oracle discontinued support for open source development in Solaris. While initially relying on OpenSolaris, the project changed to illumos OS / Net.
The distribution was planned by duration of a period of uncertainty that followed Oracle's acquisition of Sun Microsystems, and a few months passed without any sign of active growth.
The formation turned out to be timely as Oracle abandoned OpenSolaris soon for Solaris 11 Express, a Closer Developmental Distribution.
OpenIndiana is part of it Of the Illumos Foundation and provides a true alternative to the open source communities of Solaris 11 and Solaris 11 Express, with an open development model and full community involvement.
Today, OpneIndiana is the de facto standard for illumos-based general purpose distributions. OpenIndiana is actively maintained and is suitable for use on both servers and home computers. For home, although there are other projects, OpenIndiana is clearly the most successful.
So if you are looking for a version of Solaris with a GUI or if you come from a Linux environment and want to try Solaris in a familiar and rather comfortable environment, OpenIndiana is for you.
