Netherlands OpenSolaris User Group meeting January 25, 2007

On Thursday 25th January 2007 the Dutch OpenSolaris User Group will hold its second meeting at Sun's Saturnus building in Amersfoort. Solaris developers, users, enthusiasts, experts, novices are all welcome.

We will start at 19:30, agenda as follows:

Bart Muijzer, local NLOSUG host, will give an update on NLOSUG, share some ideas, and try to get discussions going.

Peter van Gemert, infamous Solaris 10 and Perl trainer, will talk about What's New in Solaris 10 and beyond.

Paul van den Boogaard, Staff Engineer and DTrace GURU, will use a real-life customer case to guide us through the True Powers of DTrace.

DTrace is too complex to handle in just one short presentation. The presentation starts with an abstract and theoretical view of why, when and where it could be used. The final part of the presentation shows a real life example in which DTrace was used to solve a problem. Scripts are shown and the reasoning behind it is explained. Fragments of the language are explained as they occur in these scripts.

We will conduct a small install fest (systems welcome - check the HCL for guidance!), and of course have food and drinks on hand.

We plan to end around 22:00 with drinks at the SUN bar.
