Here's a short bio entry: ------------------------- Brendan Gregg is a staff engineer in the Fishworks group at Sun Microsystems where he works on a wide range of kernel and user-land technologies, especially those related to performance. He is the creator of the DTraceToolkit and is the co-author of "Solaris Performance and Tools". His recent projects include writing the DTrace IP provider, the Fishworks BUI dashboard, and the ZFS L2ARC. Brendan has previously worked as a system administrator, Sun instructor and consultant in the Asia-Pacific region, and was based in Sydney, Australia. He is currently living in San Francisco, California, where he misses cricket and rugby on TV. http://blogs.sun.com/brendan http://blogs.sun.com/fishworks ------------------------- So don't delay any longer, seats are limited and running out. It's not just about Sun's technologies, it's about Open Source. Remember - innovation happens _everywhere_ (and DTrace is available on Mac OS X and FreeBSD). If you cannot come along, please make sure that our customers know about this conference, and strongly encourage them to come. It's rare for Australia to get an opportunity like this, so you and they should make the most of it.
