Order TrueNAS SCALE 23.10 (Cobia) servers

HOSTKEY offers the possibility to order TrueNAS SCALE 23.10 (Cobia) servers to create network storage

TrueNAS SCALE is a free and open-source operating system that enables you to create your storage server without incurring additional software costs.

TrueNAS SCALE 23.10 introduces a key enhancement that allows you to create storage that can be hosted on multiple nodes. TrueNAS SCALE offers increased scalability, isolated containers, simplified infrastructure management, ZFS support, Docker container support, KVM-based virtualization, and ZFS scaling across multiple nodes using the Gluster distributed file system.

The available protocols for organizing access to storage include SMB, NFS, iSCSI Block Storage, S3 Object API, and Cloud Sync. To ensure secure access, connections can be made via VPN. Nodes can also be used to provide services and run applications in Kubernetes containers or KVM-based virtual machines, in addition to performing storage organization tasks.

The new version of TrueNAS SCALE introduces several improvements and new features:

• The ability to provide access to a single dataset simultaneously via SMB and NFSv4 protocols. This allows users to work with data across multiple systems, including Windows, Netapp, and myriad.
• The new version includes support for file synchronization between SMB/NFS servers, making it easier to work with data and ensure that it is up-to-date across all devices.
• The block cloning mechanism in ZFS enables the creation of file or partial copies without duplicating data. This significantly speeds up the process of copying files and directories in SMB and NFS storage.
• OpenZFS, Samba, and the NVMe subsystem have been updated to enhance performance and scalability, enabling the use of more drives and larger storage.
• The TrueNAS application interface has been redesigned to improve usability, including the Storage Pool interface.
• Several system services are now available as separately downloadable TrueNAS applications, simplifying configuration and management.
• The report generation components have been redesigned to enhance their functionality and usability.
• Buttons have been added to pause and resume ZFS check (Scrub), which enables you to monitor the health of your datastore.
• ZFS dRAID (Distributed Spare RAID) support has been added to enable fault-tolerant configurations and reduce failure recovery time by 70%.
• The Linux kernel, NVIDIA drivers, and OpenZFS have been updated to the latest versions to ensure compatibility and security.
