Introducing the Revolutionary TrueNAS Bluefin BETA with Storj Integration for Unbeatable Globally Distributed Storage (GDS)
Joining forces with Storj, iXsystems has unveiled the next generation of TrueNAS Scale, Bluefin BETA, featuring the groundbreaking Globally Distributed Storage (GDS) service. This game-changing technology offers unparalleled resiliency, security, and speed at a fraction of the cost of traditional cloud storage options.
With the collaboration between iXsystems and Storj, TrueNAS users now have access to offsite S3-compatible storage at an unbeatable price point. Organizations can now securely store their data in multiple geographic locations without breaking the bank. GDS perfectly complements the high-performance and reliable ZFS-based storage system of TrueNAS, making it a must-have for storage solutions in data centers, offices, and homes.
Like TrueNAS, GDS prioritizes security with CloudSync’s 256-bit encryption for both data-at-rest and data-in-flight. This ensures that only the TrueNAS administrator has access to the keys, guaranteeing the privacy of user data. On top of that, GDS offers double the bandwidth and boasts an impressive 11-9s of availability, far surpassing that of traditional cloud storage services.
But that’s not all – the pricing for GDS is unbeatable, with storage costs at just $4 per TB/month and bandwidth costs at $7 per TB. This equates to an incredible 80% savings compared to similar services. According to iXsystems, GDS will be available on TrueNAS Scale Angelfish and TrueNAS 13.0, starting in Q4 of 2022.
But the developments don’t stop there. TrueNAS Scale Bluefin brings a host of significant enhancements for enterprise adoption, including high availability with over 1,000 drives per node, a hardened clustering system with simplified operations and Kubernetes CSI, and improved Linux-based security compliance and Role-Based Access Control.
And for those currently using TrueNAS CORE, transitioning to TrueNAS SCALE Bluefin is a breeze with the included migration tools and licensing support. But don’t just take our word for it – try TrueNAS SCALE Bluefin BETA for yourself, available now at no cost.
