Abathuthukisi bephrojekthi ye-Illumos, eqhubeka nokuthuthukisa i-OpenSolaris kernel, isitaki senethiwekhi, amasistimu wamafayela, abashayeli, imitapo yolwazi kanye nesethi eyisisekelo yezinsiza zesistimu, banqume ukuyeka ukusekelwa kwesakhiwo se-64-bit SPARC. Ezakhiweni ezitholakalayo ze-Illumos, yi-x86_64 kuphela esele (usekelo lwamasistimu we-32-bit x86 lwanqanyulwa ngo-2018). Uma kukhona abathanda, kuzokwazi ukuqala ukusebenzisa izakhiwo zamanje zesimanje ze-ARM kanye ne-RISC-V e-Illumos. Ukususa usekelo lwezinhlelo ze-SPARC zefa kuzohlanza isisekelo sekhodi futhi kususe imikhawulo eqondene nesakhiwo se-SPARC.
Phakathi kwezizathu zokwenqaba ukusekela i-SPARC ukuntula ukufinyelela emishinini yokuhlanganisa nokuhlolwa, kanye nokungenzeki kokunikeza ukusekelwa komhlangano kwekhwalithi ephezulu kusetshenziswa ama-cross-compilation noma ama-emulators. Okunye okushiwo yisifiso sokusebenzisa ubuchwepheshe besimanje e-Illumos, njenge-JIT nolimi lwe-Rust, intuthuko ephazanyiswa izibopho ekwakhiweni kwe-SPARC. Ukuphela kokusekelwa kwe-SPARC kuzophinde kunikeze ithuba lokuvuselela isihlanganisi se-GCC (okwamanje iphrojekthi iphoqeleka ukusebenzisa i-GCC 4.4.4 ukuze isekele i-SPARC) futhi ishintshele ekusebenziseni izinga elisha lolimi C.
Ngokuqondene nolimi lwe-Rust, abathuthukisi bahlose ukufaka esikhundleni sezinye izinhlelo ku-usr/src/amathuluzi abhalwe ngezilimi ezihunyushiwe ngama-analogue asetshenziswe ngolimi lwe-Rust. Ngaphezu kwalokho, kuhlelwe ukusebenzisa i-Rust ukuthuthukisa amasistimu angaphansi kwe-kernel nemitapo yolwazi. Ukuqaliswa kokusebenza kwe-Rust in Illumos okwamanje kuphazanyiswa ukwesekwa okulinganiselwe kwephrojekthi ye-Rust ekwakhiweni kwe-SPARC.
Ukuphela kosekelo lwe-SPARC ngeke kuthinte ukusatshalaliswa kwe-Illumos kwamanje kwe-OmniOS ne-OpenIndiana, ekhishelwa kuphela amasistimu e-x86_64. Ukusekelwa kwe-SPARC bekukhona ekusatshalalisweni kwe-Illumos Dilos, OpenSCXE kanye ne-Tribblix, lapho ezimbili zokuqala zingabuyekezwanga iminyaka eminingana, futhi i-Tribblix yashiya imihlangano yokubuyekeza ye-SPARC futhi yashintshela esakhiweni se-x2018_86 ngo-64.
