Solaris 10 presentation to ISV's

The other day, I presented cool features of Solaris 10 to ISV's in Mumbai (on 9th Dec) and New Delhi (on 10th Dec). This technology show was organized by Sun for ISV's and most of the people those who came there were Java Developers. It was very well received. People didn't ask much questions because of lack of time, but most of the questions that came were on Solaris containers and Solaris x86. I couldn't show the demo of Dtrace, Zones and ZFS because of lack of time. Since this talk was meant for ISV's only, the number of people came for the presentation was around 80 only. We showed the demo of 3-D looking glass as well. People were very happy to see the demo. The other talks were on J2EE and Java. Thanks.

Solaris 10 Presentation

Yesterday (11th October), Pramod Batni and I presented cool features of Solaris 10 and Dtrace to Hughes software  (www.hssworld.com). It was well received by the folks there and they were very keen in deploying Solaris Zones (http://wwws.sun.com/software/solaris/10/inside.jsp). They also wanted to use Dtrace (http://wwws.sun.com/software/solaris/10/inside.jsp) for improving performance of their application. Though there were few people who could manage to attend Solaris 10 and Dtrace talk, but people there were willing to adopt new technologies in Solaris 10 and were very keen on more detailed talk on Solaris 10 especially on Solaris Zones and Dtrace. Girish (GSO folk) also gave a presentation on our Processor Road map, Sun Cluster, and Volume Server Products.

This is not our first presentation to an Indian customer. We have presented cool features of Solaris 10 to loads of companies in India. I have presented cool features of Solaris 10 at places like Sun Developer Days (New Delhi), Sun Technology Conference (Bangalore), Infosys (Finacle Division), and Nucleus Software. It had been a great experience for me to present on Solaris 10 at such places. Infact we gave a demo of Dtrace to Infosys folks (developers of Finacle software). Infosys folks were very impressed about Dtrace and wants to use Dtrace for java programs as well.

We are looking for more such companies and developers to adopt Solaris 10.

Thanks,
