This Sun BluePrints article describes a solution for a Web 2.0 application deployment on Sun servers and the OpenSolaris operating system. It shows how to scale a medium sized Web 2.0 site with a million registered users with open source technologies, and includes detailed configuration and tuning information for the deployment, along with tips for obtaining the best performance from such a configuration. The solution uses Olio—a Web 2.0 toolkit that Sun has invested in—to help customers analyze and scale deployments. Olio allows users to performance test new technologies in a stable environment without having to devise expensive, cumbersome tests on production applications.
