On another forum, the other day, Alan Coopersmith shared a nice list of recent blogs on Oracle Solaris and related topics and I thought that this would be good to share on this blog roll too. It has blogs from this blog roll as well as many others and it gives a nice insight into the recent activity in this area as well as the new features delivered via the “Continuous Innovation” process in the 11.4 SRU’s. Here’s the list:
