Keep readingAs the motto “The Power To Serve” indicates, FreeBSD is specifically designed to excel as a server operating system. Today, we’re going to go over three of its most compelling advantages in that role: thorough OpenZFS integration, easy-to-leverage infrastructure for custom packaging, and advanced fleet management capabilities.
Keep readingIn the first article of this series, we covered the major differences between two types of firewalls platforms – either Linux or FreeBSD based and what the options are. In the second part, we go a bit deeper and discuss how egress filtering is done, and how tables and sets are built. Read more about…
Keep readingWhen it comes to choosing a firewall technology for your operating system, the options can be overwhelming. This is particularly true for Linux and FreeBSD, which offer multiple choices. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at four of the most popular firewall options for both systems: iptables, nftables, ipfw, and pf, to help…

Since its first release for the i386 processor in 1993, FreeBSD has been ported to run on a wide array of different CPU architectures and platforms. In this article, we will look at the youngest of these architectures on which FreeBSD currently runs: the RISC-V instruction set architecture.
Keep readingRISC-V is a relatively new chip architecture that is quickly making its way in the tech world and is proving to be quite a rival for the existing well-known architectures. Today, we will look at the history of RISC-V and how it differs from the other offerings.
Keep readingWith the release of FreeBSD 13, arm64 has been elevated to Tier 1 status. FreeBSD support for arm64 has grown steadily since the architecture was incorporated in 2015 based on work supported by the community, ARM and Marvell (then Cavium). Learn about processor performance, hardware factors, and Big.Little in our latest article.
Keep readingFreeBSD/arm64 is the FreeBSD port to the 64-bit ARM architecture, also known as AArch64 or ARMv8. All supported FreeBSD releases include support for ARMv8 and there are many packages and ports (3rd party applications) available to support the software you normally deploy with FreeBSD.
