I haven't tested ezp 4.1 on Solaris, but it should be stable, http://ez.no/company/news/ez_publish_4_1_adds_native_support_for_sun_solaris_10_and_oracle_database.

Why Solaris is a good choice for eZ Publish is more related with the os itself. Solaris has some great features like:

- ZFS file system
- DTrace
- Solaris Containers
- great scalability & performance
- over 15 years of development?
- open source and corporate version/support

In my opinion the best of Solaris is the ZFS file system and that the OS has excellent performance results in x64 environments. Also Mysql is now part of Sun and perhaps Solaris/MySQL environments could be the best choice in the future... Another good point is that the founder of Debian works in Sun (even if he is not working in community related tasks now)

Anyway ezpublish works great with other unix/linux distributions so you really have to select the best choice based in performance, knowledge, support needs, etc

Off topic?: For the future, interesting is this new project that combines opensolaris kernel with Debian: http://www.nexenta.org/os

- great scalability & performance

fwiw, performance that matters most to ezpublish is limited to a small set of system calls, and usually those are the ones where linux shines. Scalability might be different, though...

Hi

I asked this question because my boss want to deploy eZ Publish on a Solaris server and I told her that Linux is better for eZ Publish.

I want more advices from other users.
Thank you

You can always install Solaris and test. OpenSolaris is a free version, which you can download from http://www.opensolaris.com/
