SANTA CLARA, Calif.—Sept. 21, 2016— Nexenta (@Nexenta), the global leader in Open Source-driven Software-Defined Storage (OpenSDS), today announced that OpenZFS Developer, Saso Kiselkov, will speak at the fourth annual OpenZFS Developer Summit on Sept. 26-27 in San Francisco, Calif. Since the Summit’s inception, Nexenta continues as a lead platinum sponsor.
OpenZFS is derived from the ZFS file system originally developed by Sun Microsystems for the Solaris operating system. Today, 30 technology companies, including Nexenta, have developed products based on OpenZFS.
The first day of the summit will feature presentations from a variety of companies including Delphix, Canonical, LLNL, Oracle and Intel, among others. Saso will present on behalf of Nexenta in a session titled, “Scrub/Resilver Performance” from 1:10-1:50 p.m. PT, where he will discuss the forthcoming work Nexenta has done for OpenZFS. He will delve into where the company has achieved performance improvements on resilver by implementing an intelligent block sorting pre-scanner ahead of the regular resilver repair code, allowing the I/O to be reordered in a way that enables achievements of near sequential resilver throughput.
The second day revolves around the OpenZFS 2016 Hackathon for the collaboration among developers using different platforms under the OpenZFS umbrella, including illumos, Linux, FreeBSD and OS X platforms. The second day also includes “Lightning Talks” where speakers will share brief updates on projects that were discussed at past conferences. Saso will present on Persistent L2ARC and TRIM, which he discussed during his presentation at the 2015 Summit, as part of the Lightening Talks from 9-9:45 a.m. PT.
