"If there is one central reason why Linux has done such a great
job of eating Solaris's lunch, dinner, dessert and midnight snacks,

implementations that allow the kernel to be used in everything from
embedded devices to clusters. Solaris's biggest selling / usage
points are things that still mainly appeal to programmers (Dtrace)
and people with high-end storage (ZFS) or processing requirements
-- and in licensing that's not compatible with Linux on top of
that."
