The Solaris Operating System (Solaris OS) includes support for Solaris Containers, a virtualization technology that provides isolated and secure runtime environments within a single Solaris OS instance. Using Solaris Containers, administrators can manage separate workloads, control resource usage, and maintain IP network separation. These features can enable multiple applications, or even multiple instances of the same application, to securely coexist on a single system, providing potential server consolidation savings.

Both Oracle 9i R2 and 10g R2 databases have been certified to run in a Solaris Container. A licensing agreement between Sun and Oracle recognizes Solaris 10 OS capped containers as hard partitions. The ability to license only the CPUs or cores configured in a Solaris Container provides flexibility, consolidation opportunities, and possible cost savings.

This article addresses the following topics:

Overview of Solaris Containers, including Solaris Zones and the Solaris Resource Manager.
The licensing model supported by Oracle for Solaris Containers.
Directions for creating and configuring a non-global zone in a Solaris Container that is appropriate for deploying an Oracle database.
Detailed guidelines for running an Oracle database in a Solaris Container.
