TrueNAS SCALE is open source storage that enables hyperconvergence and scale-out storage. Supporting file, block, objects, and applications, TrueNAS SCALE Bluefin 22.12.1 is now available after a well-deployed release in December. We would like to thank the 20,000+ early adopters that have provided their time, systems, and feedback. Improvement highlights include:
SMB Share Proxy provides a redirect mechanism for making many TrueNAS SMB Shares available in a common namespace presented by one TrueNAS system, reducing configuration effort.
Kubernetes Pass-through is provided with an Enterprise license and enables external orchestrators to control the Kubernetes API functionality within a node.
250 Bug Fixes (most are minor) with several having a significant impact on system reliability. After more community testing, we expect to recommend SCALE users to upgrade.
The iX team is already working on the second update to Bluefin with a target release at the end of March.
Starting at under $2,000, the all-new TrueNAS Mini R is the first rack-mountable TrueNAS Mini from iXsystems, providing unified file, block, and object storage. It is fully supported by both TrueNAS CORE and our newest hyperconverged solution, TrueNAS SCALE. The new Mini R is ideal for small and home offices and can also serve in parts of enterprise deployments for remote sites, backup, labs, and non-critical departmental applications.
It is now available to order from iXsystems and will be coming to Amazon in March. Appliances ordered via TrueNAS.com can be preconfigured with either TrueNAS SCALE or TrueNAS CORE.
TrueNAS is a software solution that is changing the way data is stored and managed.

Of the DPGs recognized by the DPGA, TrueNAS is among the most widely used Open Source software, helping lower the barriers to digital innovation in nearly every country on the planet.

When preparing for clustering, a good practice is to back up a SCALE system configuration before creating a cluster. Backups allow users to quickly restore the system configuration to the initial working state if something goes wrong.
