== Summary ==
 
OpenZFS was [[announcement | announced in September 2013]] as the truly '''open source''' successor to the [[History | ZFS project]]. Our community '''brings together developers''' from the illumos, FreeBSD, Linux, macOS, NetBSD, and Windows [[distributions | platforms]], and a wide range of [[companies]] that build products on top of OpenZFS.
 
OpenZFS is an '''outstanding storage platform''' that encompasses the functionality of traditional filesystems, volume managers, and more, with consistent reliability, functionality, and performance across all [[distributions]]:
