"why Netflix uses Linux instead of Solaris" Just a reminder, we also run FreeBSD on our CDN servers at Netflix.

  Right, thanks, I should have said "on the cloud" and "Cloud OS team" instead of "OS team".

    Is there public information available about why Netflix uses Linux as opposed to FreeBSD for those pieces of infrastructure?

      Netflix runs Java and the Oracle JVM runs on Linux but not FreeBSD. I have no information, but there aren't very many dots to connect here.
