What is a Branded Zones ? Branded zones(BrandZ) provides the framework to create non-global zones that contain non-native operating environments. This allows individual zones to emulate an OS environment other than the native one of the global OS. The brand for a zone is set at the time the zone is created, and is implemented with interposition points within the OS kernel that can be used to change the behavior of syscalls, process loading, thread creation, and other elements. Three brands that have been implemented are Solaris Containers for Linux Applications, Solaris 8 Containers, and Solaris 9 Containers.

Solaris Zones
The Solaris Zones partitioning technology is used to virtualize operating system services and provide an isolated and secure environment for running applications. A zone is a virtualized operating system environment created within a single instance of the Solaris Operating System. When you create a zone, you produce an application execution environment in which processes are isolated from the rest of the system. This isolation prevents processes that are running in one zone from monitoring or affecting processes that are running in other zones.Zones can be used on any machine that is running the Solaris 10 release. The upper limit for the number of zones on a system is 8192. The number of zones that can be effectively hosted on a single system is determined by the total resource requirements of the application software running in all of the zones.
