If Oracle would be generous enough to offer it under a compatible license, I have little doubt it would be very welcome, despite some of its architectural incompatibilities.
Oracle is developing Btrfs for Linux, I'm not sure they have any desire to make ZFS more attractive to Linux users.
Also, didn't Apple roll out ZFS on OSX and then abandon it? Does anyone know the reasoning behind that? Perhaps ZFS was over-hyped or is only useful in certain scenarios.
- evilduck 15y agoApple released a ZFS read-only driver. They've never offered support for it as a writable format as far as I'm aware.

Apple's current server offering is a Mac Mini with two hard disks inside it. It's too bad. Time Machine looks like it was made for ZFS snapshots.
