We are building a new clustered wm installation.
The current architecture has Broker and SQL server on a Windows Cluster + SAN… and then IS running on Solaris 10.
The driver for this architecture is “its been implemented succesfully by another team” rather than to fit our specific requirements. (not that we really have any either!).
As a developer I would like to know what are the real pros/cons of Unix vs Windows for hosting IS.
I would personally like it hosted on Windows so we can use the .NET integration (we are not doing any yet, but most of us are .NET developers so would be nice to have the option!), but without a real value proposition it wont happen. Maybe Solaris is the best host, but it seems to me it wont do anything magical that can’t be done on Windows. (To my understanding, specific performance targets are not current requirement of ours anyway).
