Since Sun originated the platform-independent Java programming language and runtime environment, Solaris systems come with a Java virtual machine and the Java Development Kit (JDK).

Solaris replaced SunOS, a system still in use on many Sun machines today.

Since replaced by Solaris, SunOS was the UNIX-based operating system for the Scalable Processor Architecture-based workstations and servers from Sun Microsystems. So its a replacement OS from SunOS to Solaris.
