TrueNAS SCALE Hyperconvergence<\/h2>\n
iXsystems also announced today the release of TrueNAS SCALE, its HCI platform for converged compute and scale-out Open ZFS storage. TrueNAS SCALE, a free, open-sourced project, backed by more than 250k users worldwide, adds Linux Containers, KVM, and scale-out ZFS<\/a> storage capabilities.<\/p>\n
![\"TrueNAS](\"https:\/\/itenterpriser.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/TrueNAS-SCALE.png\")
<\/p>\nIt’s worth mentioning that TrueNAS SCALE is being released in its Alpha stage (codenamed “Angelfish”) and should not be used for production environments. The current roadmap indicates TrueNAS SCALE will be ready for production environments in Q2 of 2021, according to a recent post on their official blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n
By then, users can expect all major TrueNAS CORE storage and sharing features, plus several SCALE-specific features derived from the app’s Linux base.<\/p>\n
If you’re wanting something to put in production now, it’s recommended you use TrueNAS CORE, as there are still many features in SCALE that have known issues, bugs, aren’t fully feature-complete, or are still in the early stages of development. But, for the enthusiasts amongst us, there are<\/em> some verified features working in SCALE.<\/p>\n
Here’s the current list of verified features, according to the official documentation:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Pool Management<\/li>\n
- SMB Shares<\/li>\n
- iSCSI Shares<\/li>\n
- NFS Shares<\/li>\n
- S3 Shares<\/li>\n
- AFP Shares<\/li>\n
- Online\/Offline updating<\/li>\n
- Virtual Machines (Using KVM)<\/li>\n
- WebDAV<\/li>\n
- Monitoring, Alerting, and Reporting<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
If your curious about the features currently in the provisional and experimental stages, you can read about them via the SCALE 20.10-ALPHA (Anglefish) release notes<\/a>.<\/p>\n
You can download TrueNAS SCALE<\/a> now–just make sure you meet the 64-bit CPU and 8 GB RAM requirements. If you do download TrueNAS SCALE, you can keep track of the bug fixes<\/a> made on the site’s changelog. If you happen to find bugs when using the software, you can contribute by reporting bugs on their Jira bugtracker<\/a>.<\/p>\n
