Native Encryption for ZFS on Linux
OK, I'm curious: why are people shoehorning the filesystem to fit the OS rather than carefully picking the OS that makes the most sense for the application it's being used for?We originally ran OpenSolaris _just for ZFS_. Then we switched to FreeBSD when OpenSolaris/OpenIndiana dead-ended. We had a production server running PHP and we were sick of PHP5, so we switched to Linux because HHVM on FreeBSD was a joke. PHP 7 came out and obviated HHVM (from a performance perspective), and so our latest PHP deployments are back on FreeBSD.If your data is valuable to you (and presumably it is and that's why you're looking at ZFS), why are you not on FreeBSD in the first place?Same story with ASP.NET - tried deploying on Mono way back before .NET Core was even an idea and realized the futility of it and switched a server farm to Windows _because it just wasn't worth it._ PHP on Windows? Same story - not production ready, move to Linux.(This isn't to disparage ZfsOnLinux, which I think is a great effort and laudable if only for home user purposes. Instead, this is a question for sysadmins on HN who are using ZoL.. .why?)
