ZFS Consulting on FreeBSD & Solaris

ZFS is the gold standard for data integrity, snapshots, and flexible storage on FreeBSD and Solaris. Zwiegnet provides expert administration and consulting for both platforms — from enterprise storage arrays to high-performance servers — with seamless support for hybrid or migration scenarios.

Our ZFS services include:

• Pool Design & Optimization – RAID-Z, mirrors, dRAID, vdev layout, ashift alignment, compression, deduplication, and ARC/L2ARC/SLOG tuning for maximum performance.
• Snapshots & Clones – Automated snapshot management, incremental send/receive replication, boot environments, and atomic rollback for data protection.
• Replication & Disaster Recovery – ZFS send/receive for remote/off-site replication, continuous sync, and tested DR procedures with low RTO/RPO.
• Encryption & Security – Native ZFS encryption (dataset-level), key management, and integration with secure boot and access controls on FreeBSD/Solaris.
• High Availability & Clustering – ZFS with FreeBSD CARP, Solaris Cluster, or third-party HA; live migration of pools and failover strategies.
• Performance Tuning & Monitoring – ARC/L2ARC/SLOG sizing, I/O scheduler tuning, zpool iostat, arcstat, and integration with Prometheus/Grafana.
• Migration & Hybrid Environments – Migrate ZFS pools between FreeBSD and Solaris, from legacy Solaris ZFS to FreeBSD, or to Linux (ZFS on Linux) with minimal downtime.
• Troubleshooting & Recovery – Diagnose pool corruption, import failures, vdev removal, and rapid recovery from hardware faults or misconfiguration.

Ideal for: enterprises, storage providers, backup systems, virtualization hosts, and organizations running ZFS on FreeBSD (TrueNAS CORE, pfSense) or Solaris — seeking maximum data integrity, performance, and resilience.

Located between Madison and Milwaukee, Wisconsin since 2009 — direct access to ZFS specialists with deep experience on both FreeBSD and Solaris platforms.
