Keep readingExplore how FreeBSD aids datacenter energy goals, promoting efficiency in design & operation, while supporting industry & government initiatives.
Keep readingDTraceis a powerful tool for system administrators to diagnosis system issues without unduly impacting performance. DTrace became part of FreeBSD with the release of FreeBSD 7.1 in 2009—two years before Oracle began porting DTrace, and nine years before Oracle eventually solved the inherent CDDL vs GPL license conflict.
Keep readingWhen troubleshooting a Linux or FreeBSD system, you need to be able to probe the system to find answers as to why it is behaving in a particular way. In this article, we’ll provide an overview of some of the basic tools and introduce the FreeBSD equivalents of common Linux tracing and troubleshooting tools.
Keep readingThe more we automate, the more we can save time and boost our productivity to higher levels. In this article we plan on looking at how to build more human-readable outputs in FreeBSD by leveraging tools like libxo to drive better output for automation APIs.

Discover how OpenZFS can provide cost-effective and reliable storage for high-performance computing (HPC) workloads in this comprehensive write-up.
Keep readingThe most common category of ZFS questions is “how should I set up my pool?” Sometimes the question ends “… using the drives I already have” and sometimes it ends with “and how many drives should I buy.” Either way, today’s article can help you make sense of your options.

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.

Discover how OpenZFS provides scalable storage architecture for petabytes of data with flexible storage configurations, RAID levels & disk addition/removal.
Keep readingDiscover why storage is the main performance bottleneck for most workloads. Learn about Klara Performance Audits and Bug Investigations related to storage.
Keep readingWhat first looked like some CPU oddity in a monitoring graph became a full-fledged hunt for a bitcoin miner. Figuring out what happened and how they were operating is part of the investigation. Collecting evidence to make a case soon became akin to a detective story.
Keep readingTo expand your OpenZFS storage infrastructure to meet constantly evolving infrastructure demands, you must understand where the limits of your current system lie. Only then can you plan to expand to provide the capacity, durability, and performance that modern applications demand.
