Solaris Infrastructure Engineering: Advanced Administration, Performance Tuning, and Resilient Architecture for Enterprise Servers is a definitive, hands-on guide for IT professionals who design, build, and operate mission-critical Solaris environments. It delivers a deep technical exploration of system architecture, kernel internals, and advanced networking, while providing clear, practical instruction on process management, memory optimization, and the Service Management Facility to help engineers architect predictable, high-performance systems.

Beyond foundational operations, this volume integrates contemporary infrastructure practices—virtualization, Solaris Zones, and container strategies—alongside DevOps automation and infrastructure-as-code workflows. Detailed examples show how to incorporate configuration management and CI/CD with tools like Puppet and Ansible, and present resilient design patterns for high availability and disaster recovery using real-world scenarios that prepare teams for large-scale, production deployments.

The book also excels in actionable troubleshooting and performance engineering, teaching readers to leverage DTrace, sophisticated log analysis, and capacity planning to diagnose and resolve complex issues. Comprehensive coverage of security hardening, monitoring, and clustered architectures ensures engineers can both secure and scale Solaris installations—making this an indispensable reference for launching new deployments or revitalizing legacy systems in enterprise environments.
