merge de la version core et scale
TrueNAS Fangtooth (aka TrueNAS 25.04) nightly images are available for developers, and the BETA1 version is expected to be ready in February. Bug fixes, feature updates, and ongoing polishing will continue until the targeted release date in April 2025.
Fangtooth Bridges the Feature Gap
Fangtooth not only unifies CORE and SCALE, but also introduces a variety of new features to TrueNAS that improve performance, security, and scalability for both users and developers. The most notable of these new capabilities are:
TrueNAS Versioned API: This allows third parties to use APIs to control TrueNAS, knowing that future versions of TrueNAS will honor the same API schemas. TrueNAS can evolve and improve in a more organized manner, allowing external tools to run with longer stability. Future versions of TrueCommand can more easily maintain better system longevity. User-Linked API Tokens are also included to provide secure and restricted management.
Fast Dedup: This feature is experimental in Electric Eel and is undergoing additional testing to be ready for production use. The significant reduction in storage media costs can benefit many use cases.
iSCSI Block Cloning: Virtualization solutions can benefit from using iSCSI XCOPY commands to efficiently and rapidly copy data.
Upgraded Containerization & Virtualization: TrueNAS further improves its virtualization capabilities with the integration of Incus support, and an upgraded WebUI with support for native LXC containers.
Upgraded Linux Kernel: By upgrading to
Linux kernel 6.12 LTS, Fangtooth will have updated support for new hardware. This will be an advantage for both CORE and SCALE users upgrading their hardware.
Apps with Configurable IP addresses: Apps in Electric Eel use TrueNAS’s host IP address. Fangtooth enables IP alias addresses to be created and assigned to one or more Apps.
Fangtooth bridges the gap between CORE and SCALE by bringing features new to SCALE users, but equivalent to CORE 13.x features.
LXC Containers: LXC is the next generation of Linux Sandbox and a natural evolution for those coming from FreeBSD Jails. These will also be managed via
Incus and provide a consistent UI for LXC and traditional VMs. Like Jails, there is efficient use of RAM and the ability to allocate a separate IP address. Within an LXC, there can be a full Linux instance and a Docker/Kubernetes engine. Tools like Dockge and Portainer can be used. You can see an early demonstration of the Incus management in TrueNAS on the
TrueNAS Tech Talk (T3) Podcast – Episode 8
Fangtooth takes TrueNAS Enterprise appliances to the next level with features enabling Enterprises to build more secure, scalable, and performant solutions:
Improved Security (STIG): Additional work on logging and auditing will take TrueNAS to the next level in government security compliance and robustness.
NFS over RDMA: The performance needs of applications increase with data size, compute speed, and cluster size. NFS over RDMA (Remote Direct Memory Access) increases bandwidth and CPU efficiency on clients and the TrueNAS systems.
Veeam Fast Clone: Veeam data movers can use SMB COPY commands to accelerate specific actions and improve general performance. TrueNAS is working with Veeam to better integrate solutions for Enterprise users.
Fibre Channel: FC storage has been supported on Enterprise 13.x for over 5 years, and with its addition to Fangtooth, Enterprise users not only have a migration and upgrade path, but existing customers searching for Fibre Channel storage for their existing SAN will be able to choose from our full line of solutions, including the powerful
TrueNAS F-Series. The same LUNs can be accessed via FC or iSCSI and backed up through True Cloud backup.
Systems upgraded from CORE to Fangtooth will also be more secure and perform better. Most users prefer the modernized UI and the addition of the global UI search capability. More information on Fangtooth will be made available prior to the BETA.
tant que lxc containers ne remplace pas docker...ca semble good
