Michael Dexter: The FreeNAS Storage Platform: A minute to learn, a lifetime to master

Abstract

FreeNAS is an open source file and block-level network attached storage platform built on FreeBSD that features the ZFS filesystem. Thanks to its true Unix heritage, FreeNAS offers the reliability and flexibility of FreeBSD but with a modern web-based management console. FreeNAS supports the SMB/CIFS, AFP, NFS, FTP, TFTP, RSYNC, SCP and iSCSI protocols and is extensible through a plug-in interface.

This talk will provide a genealogy of FreeNAS, a guide to practical hardware considerations, a basic configuration tutorial and survey of just how much there is to explore in the 2GB FreeNAS boot image.

Biography

Michael is now the Editor of Call For Testing, a BSD technical journal and lives with his wife and daughter in Portland, Oregon.
