Thanks for the Summary
Two quick notes.
1. Paul Dagnelie from Klara systems was looking for Interest and funding
to Port OpenZFS features back to illumos.
2. Do you know if Zettalane is sponsoring some work as stakeholder or is
interested in doing so? Either with OmniOS Assiciation or intersted in
funding with the new Association?
Greetings

*Highlights from yesterday's OpenZFS developer conference:*
*Most important OpenZFS announcement: AnyRaid*
This is a new vdev type based on mirror or Raid-Zn to build a vdev from
disks of any size where datablocks are striped in tiles (1/64 of
smallest disk or 16G). Largest disk can be 1024x of smallest with
maximum of 256 disks per vdev. AnyRaid Vdevs can expand, shrink and auto
rebalance on shrink or expand.
Basically the way Raid-Z should have be from the beginning and propably
the most superiour flexible raid concept on the market.
*Large Sector/ Labels
*Large format NVMe require them
Improve S3 backed pools efficiency
*Blockpointer V2
*More uberblocks to improve recoverability of pools
*Amazon FSx*
fully managed OpenZFS storage as a service
*Zettalane storage*
with HA in mind, based on S3 object storage
This is nice as they use Illumos as base
*Storage grow (be prepared)*
no end in sight (AI needs)
cost: hd=1x, SSD=6x
*Discussions:*
mainly around realtime replication, cluster options with ZFS, HA and
multipath and object storage integration
*already in current OpenZFS (and sadly not in Illumos ZFS)
*Draid (for very large vdevs, massively improves resilver time)
Fast Dedup (improves dedup)
Special Vdev has slog and dedup vdev functionality (perfect for hybrid
pools)
vdev rewrite (rebalance, reorganize vdevs)
direct io (improves NVMe pools)
