Who offers production Level support? Certification? No one AFAICS. I wonder why you didn't mention that.

Who offers production Level support? Certification? No one AFAICS. I wonder why you didn't mention that.
- ryao 12y agoIt was not the purpose of the blog post. Anyway, you mentioned a couple of different things here. First, there are a few companies that offer production level support. SoftNAS is one. For full disclosure, my 2014 tax return will include consulting fees earned from fixing bugs for SoftNAS. It is in use at various large companies, including Netflix and Boeing: http://www.softnas.com/ http://www.softnas.com/ Another is PogoStor, which advertises that the hardware that they sell has been certified by Nexenta for use with ZFS: http://www.pogostorage.com/products/nexenta/overview/whycertified.php http://www.pogostorage.com/products/nexenta/overview/whycert... They also have their own Linux distribution based on ZoL, for which I assume that they offer commercial support: http://www.pogostorage.com/products/pogostor/pogostor-overview.php http://www.pogostorage.com/products/pogostor/pogostor-overvi... As for certification, it is not clear if you mean hardware certification or system administrator certification. I am not aware of any filesystems that have system administrator certifications. As for hardware certifications, ZFS is designed for use with commodity hardware. It probably does not make sense to try to certify it for the full range of hardware it supports (although a subset is certified by Nexenta). Specific hardware guidelines are available on the official Open ZFS wiki: http://open-zfs.org/wiki/Hardware http://open-zfs.org/wiki/Hardware
