Description

OmniOS is an open-source server operating system designed to include only essential features. Its native file system, ZFS, integrates a volume manager with robust data integrity protections. You can effortlessly share volumes using protocols like iSCSI, CIFS, and NFS. Additionally, OmniOS allows the execution of lightweight virtual machines running either OmniOS or Linux in containers, eliminating the traditional hypervisor's overhead while ensuring complete resource management. For those needing full hardware virtualization, it supports bhyve and KVM, allowing the operation of various guest systems including Microsoft Windows and FreeBSD. Network infrastructure can be virtualized through Crossbow, which offers virtual interfaces and switches, plus the option to allocate dedicated resources for specific applications. DTrace serves as a powerful dynamic tracing framework to facilitate troubleshooting across the software stack, enabling real-time instrumentation whenever needed. As an open-source project, OmniOS is self-hosting and its development is actively managed on GitHub, where contributors can submit pull requests, and anyone interested can access the source code to compile their own version of OmniOS. This environment fosters community involvement and transparency in the development process.

Description

ReactOS is an operating system designed to run Windows software and drivers, offering a familiar interface for users accustomed to Windows environments. This free and open-source OS, developed from the ground up, mirrors the structure of Windows much like Linux does with Unix, yet it is distinct from Linux itself. One of its primary advantages is that it allows users to run all their favorite Windows applications and drivers seamlessly, making it an appealing option for those transitioning from Windows. Additionally, users have the freedom to create their own customized versions of ReactOS. Engaging with open-source software is a daily occurrence for many, as applications like Firefox, LibreOffice, and various GNU-Linux distributions contribute to the vast array of open-source projects available. The community-driven nature of Open Source initiatives, including ReactOS, means that contributions through translation, donations, or coding are valuable ways to support and advance the project. By participating in this ecosystem, users can help enhance ReactOS for future generations.
