FreeNAS

The 2cld storage infrastructure pattern uses ZFS storage mounted via NFS, SMB and iSCSI via a FreeNAS server. Storage allocation, snapshots and recovery are determined via project / customer SLA and maintained through management of ZFS snapshot, replication and rsync tools via the FreeNAS server.
