For the record - its 'FreeBSD' not 'Free BSD' name.

Here are more details if interested:

This kind of skips Solaris Zones, which were a step forward on the networking front a few years earlier than similar support FreeBSD Jails.

Solaris 10 contained a lot of pretty innovative stuff:

- Containers/Zones (as you just mentioned)

- ZFS

- DTrace

- SMF (similar to systemd)

I loved Solaris. It's a shame Oracle bought Sun.
