Webinar Overview
Some of the best knowledge about ZFS doesn't make it into the official documentation. That's where experience, deep dives, and the occasional war story come in.
Join Allan Jude and Michael W. Lucas (noted technical author of FreeBSD Mastery: ZFS) for a special session that brings together two of the most recognizable names in the ZFS world.
They'll share insights you won't find in the man pages — from practical tuning, to gotchas in production, to why certain design decisions were made the way they were.
What You’ll Learn:
- Hard-won lessons from running ZFS in production at scale
- Tuning advice and operational practices that never make the docs
- How ZFS thinking has evolved across versions
- Insider stories and perspectives from decades of experience
Date: November 19, 2025
