OpenSolaris Web Stack (http://opensolaris.org/os/project/webstack) is an OpenSolaris project and community building an integrated stack of popular open source web tier infrastructure technologies such as Apache HTTP server, MySQL, memcached, PHP and Ruby On Rails optimized for Solaris platform. This session introduces OpenSolaris Web Stack, its status and future development including addition of newer technologies such as lighttpd, Varnish etc., as well as the ease of use features for developers and deployers. We will also be discussing an experimental web stack IPS package repository and it could be leveraged to build and make available popular end user applications such as Drupal.

Developing MySQL on Solaris requires you to install a suitable compiler and other tools, but you may be surprised to know that most of the material is there already, or easy to install if it's not. But even more so, there is a huge wealth of information that you can get about your application while it's running, both with and without using more traditional debugging methods. We'll cover setting up a suitable environment, where to find the things you need, and and how to make use of the process monitoring tools and debugging environment to get the best out of development on Solaris generally, and MySQL specifically.

This session will introduce DTrace, OpenSolaris's Dynamic Trace Facility, which can be used to give unprecedented access to the inner workings of MySQL. We will explore specific MySQL DTrace probes and the DTrace pid provider, which allows the gathering of information about any function within a process.
