The Zettabyte File System (ZFS), has found a home at https://aws.amazon.com/?utm_content=inline-mention, the cloud giant https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-amazon-fsx-for-openzfs/ this week at its annual user conference, AWS re:Invent.

“It’s a wonderful file system, with tremendous capability,” enthused https://www.linkedin.com/in/wayneduso/, AWS vice president of engineering for storage, edge, and data governance services, in an interview with The New Stack. This ZFS implementation, based on https://www.openzfs.org/wiki/Main_Page is done through https://aws.amazon.com/fsx/, an AWS managed file system service created by AWS to adopt third-party file systems to its cloud environment.
