Illumos (stylized as "illumos") is a partly free and open-source Unix operating system.[3] It has been developed since 2010 and is based on OpenSolaris, after the discontinuation of that product by Oracle. It comprises a kernel, device drivers, system libraries, and utility software for system administration. Its core has become the base for many different open-sourced Illumos distributions,[4] in a way similar to how the Linux kernel is used in different Linux distributions.[5]
