Solaris Operating System - Solaris Containers Learning Center

Solaris Containers Learning Center

With easy access to multimedia presentations and demos, learn how Solaris Containers can help address your virtualization and application consolidation needs.

Overview

Solaris Containers isolate software applications and services using flexible, software-defined boundaries. Solaris Containers allow many private execution environments be created within a single instance of the Solaris OS. Each environment has its own identity, separate from the underlying hardware.
