Veritas Storage Foundation and High Availability Virtualization Solutions includes support for non-global and Branded zones, Projects, and Oracle VM Server for SPARC.

Solaris Zones, also known as non-global zones is an operating system-level virtualization technology, which provides a means of virtualizing operating system services to create an isolated environment for running applications. Non-global zones function as completely isolated virtual servers with a single operating system instance.

Branded zones are an extension of the Solaris Zone infrastructure. A Branded zone is a non-native zone that allows individual zones to emulate an operating system environment other than the native environment of the global operating system.

Oracle VM Server for SPARC is a virtualization technology that enables the creation of independent virtual machine environments on the same physical system. Oracle VM Server for SPARC provides a virtualized computing environment abstracted from all physical devices, which allows you to consolidate and centrally manage your workloads on a system. The logical domains can be specified roles such as a control domain, service domain, I/O domain , and guest domain. Each domain is a full virtual machine where the operating systems can be started, stopped, and rebooted independently.

The Solaris operating system provides a facility called projects to identify workloads. The project serves as an administrative tag, which you can use to group useful and related work. You can for example create one project for a sales application and another project for a marketing application. By placing all processes related to the sales application in the sales project and the processes for the marketing application in the marketing project, you can separate and control the workloads in a way that makes sense to the business.
