Review: CloudReady and TrueNAS Core

CloudReady is a Linux distribution produced by Neverware, a company which is now part of Google. CloudReady is based on Gentoo and basically turns a computer into a platform for a web browser. The idea is that the distribution will remain a minimal base for its browser which will access web-based applications, web pages, and on-line storage.

TrueNAS Core, formerly called FreeNAS, is a FreeBSD-based operating system which provides Network-Attached Storage (NAS) services. TrueNAS Core is the community branch of the TrueNAS project, sponsored by iXsystems. It also has a commercial branch called TrueNAS Enterprise. TrueNAS provides a minimal operating system base with a friendly, web-based front end for administration. Using TrueNAS we can set up ZFS storage pools, filesystem snapshots, network shares, user accounts, and background services through the web-based administration portal.
