What's New in Solaris 11.4
Presented By: Bob Netherton
Serving customers into 2031 and beyond
Paraphrasing Mark Twain a bit, rumors of the demise of Solaris have been greatly exaggerated. For many of our customers, SPARC and Solaris continue to be critical technologies and this talk will be focused on how Oracle has supported and will continue to support those customers into the next decade. This will be a technical discussion covering:
Solaris Support Repository Updates (SRUs) - what they are and why they matter
New features in ZFS, including vdev device removal (has it really been 16 years)
Solaris Analytics for fans of Grafana (Solaris Web Dashboard) and Prometheus (Solaris Stat Store)
Platform support
Security and Compliance Reporting tools
Solaris in the Oracle Cloud

.Dot Files
Presented By: Ed Howland
What are dotfiles? If, as you say, they are invisible, then how do I view them? Why to dotfiles exist? Where did they originally come from? What are they used for? Why are they splattered all over my clean pristine home directory and other folders? Is there some strategy for managing them well? All these questions and perhaps many more will be attempted to be answered by this talk.
