Project Name: Truenascore
> ## History
The FreeNAS project was started in October 2005 by Olivier Cochard-Labbé who based it on the [m0n0wall](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M0n0wall "M0n0wall") embedded firewall and [FreeBSD 6.0](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FreeBSD "FreeBSD"). Volker Theile joined the project in July 2006 and became the project lead in April 2008. In September 2009, the development team concluded that the project, then at release .7, was due for a complete rewrite in order to accommodate modern features such as a [plug-in](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plug-in_(computing) "Plug-in (computing)") architecture. Volker Theile decided that the project best be reimplemented using Debian [Linux](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux "Linux") and shifted his development efforts to the interim CoreNAS project and eventually [OpenMediaVault](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenMediaVault "OpenMediaVault") where he continues as the project lead. Cochard-Labbé responded to community objections to "The Debian version of FreeNAS" and resumed activity in the project and oversaw its transfer to FreeNAS user Developers Daisuke Aoyama and Michael Zoon continued developing FreeNAS 7 as the [NAS4Free](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAS4Free "NAS4Free") project. Meanwhile, iXsystems rewrote FreeNAS with a new architecture based on [FreeBSD](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FreeBSD "FreeBSD") 8.1, releasing FreeNAS 8 Beta in November 2010 The [plug-in](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plug-in_(computing) "Plug-in (computing)") architecture arrived with FreeNAS 8.2 and FreeNAS versioning was synchronized with FreeBSD for clarity. FreeNAS 8.3 introduced full-disk [encryption](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptography "Cryptography") and FreeBSD 9.1-based FreeNAS 9.1 brought an updated [plug-in](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plug-in_(computing) "Plug-in (computing)") architecture that is compatible with the [TrueOS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TrueOS "TrueOS") Warden jail management framework. FreeNAS 9.1 was also the first version of FreeNAS to use the community-supported OpenZFS v5000 with Feature Flags. FreeNAS 9.2, based on FreeBSD 9.2 included performance improvements and introduced a [REST](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_state_transfer "Representational state transfer") [API](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_programming_interface "Application programming interface") for remote system administration.FreeNAS 9.3, based on FreeBSD 9.3 introduced a ZFS-based boot device, an initial [Setup Wizard](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wizard_(software) "Wizard (software)") and a high-performance [in-kernel](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_(operating_system) "Kernel (operating system)") [iSCSI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_SCSI "Internet SCSI") 9.10, based on FreeBSD 10.3-RC3 brought an end to the FreeNAS/FreeBSD synchronized naming and introduced [Graphite](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphite_(software) "Graphite (software)") monitoring support and experimental support for the [bhyve](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bhyve "Bhyve") hypervisor.
In October 2015, ten years after the original FreeNAS release, FreeNAS 10 ALPHA was released, providing a preview of what would become FreeNAS Corral [GA](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_release_life_cycle#General_availability_.28GA.29 "Software release life cycle") on March 15, 2017 FreeNAS Corral introduced a new [graphical user interface](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphical_user_interface "Graphical user interface"), [command-line interface](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command-line_interface "Command-line interface"), underlying [middleware](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middleware "Middleware"), [container](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Docker_(software) "Docker (software)") management system and [virtual machine](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_machine "Virtual machine") management system. FreeNAS Corral departs from FreeNAS by providing not only [NAS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network-attached_storage "Network-attached storage") functionality but also [hyper-converged](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyper-converged_infrastructure "Hyper-converged infrastructure") functionality thanks to its integrated [virtual machine](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_machine "Virtual machine") support. However, on April 12, 2017 iXsystems announced that FreeNAS Corral would instead be relegated to being a 'Technology Preview', citing issues such as "general instability, lack of feature parity with 9.10 (Jails, iSCSI, etc), and some users experiencing lower performance than expected" and the departure of the project lead. Instead, the decision was made to revert to the existing 9.10 code and bring Corral features to 9.10.3 and further.

In May 2017, iXsystems announced that FreeNAS 11 would be imminently released, which was based on 9.10 but included features such as an update of the FreeBSD operating system, [virtual machine](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_machine "Virtual machine") management, updates to jails, and a new beta user interface along the lines of Corral but based on [Angular](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_(web_framework) "Angular (web framework)").

In March 2020, iXsystems announced that the 12.0 release will merge the FreeNAS code base with that of their commercial TrueNAS offering. FreeNAS will become TrueNAS CORE while TrueNAS will be renamed TrueNAS Enterprise.This change was made official with the release of TrueNAS 12.0 on October 20, 2020.

In October 2020, iXsystems announced a new product, TrueNAS SCALE would be developed. TrueNAS SCALE would still utilize ZFS, but be based on Debian Linux.[

In February 2022, iX announced that TrueNAS SCALE has reached General Availability quality for their 22.02 release.
In May 2022, iX announced that TrueNAS CORE, their FreeBSD Based version of TrueNAS, has reached General Availabilty and is suitable for large deployments.
> ## Introduction:
> *****TRUENASCORE**** is the brand for iXsystems' open source network attached storage platform. It includes the following:
> **TRUENASCORE** (previously FreeNAS) – ***a free file server and expandable platform based on* FreeBSD**.
> **TRUENASCORE** Enterprise – an enterprise file server for commercial use, also based on FreeBSD.
**TRUENASCORE** range includes free public versions (TrueNAS CORE, previously known as FreeNAS), commercial versions (TrueNAS Enterprise), and Linux versions (TrueNAS SCALE). It also offers hardware, from small home systems to large petabyte arrays, based on the above versions.
**TRUENASCORE** supports Windows, macOS and Unix clients and various virtualization hosts such as XenServer and VMware using the SMB, AFP, NFS, iSCSI, SSH, rsync and FTP/TFTP protocols. Advanced TrueNAS features include full-disk encryption and a plug-in architecture for third-party software*

![Reduce Virtualization Costs with TrueNAS - iXsystems, Inc ...](https://www.ixsystems.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Virtualization-1.png)

The 8.0 reimplementation of FreeNAS moved the project from a m0n0BSD/architecture to one based on [FreeBSD](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FreeBSD "FreeBSD")'s NanoBSD embedded build system, the [Python](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_language "Python language") programming language, the [Django](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Django_(web_framework) "Django (web framework)") web application framework and the olkit")Lighttp web server, but this was replaced with [nginx](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nginx "Nginx") in FreeNAS 8.2. The terminated successor to 9.10.2, known as FreeNAS Corral, retained the [nginx](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nginx "Nginx") web server and ZFS-based boot device of FreeNAS but replaces the Django/dōjō web application framework with an original one. FreeNAS 11 implemented a new interface using [Angular](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_(web_framework) "Angular (web framework)").
