[edit] Critiques / Comparisons of WAFL

I came here looking for information to compare and contrast WAFL with other file systems. Some googling gave me this:

ZFS vs. NetAPPs WAFL - Comparison chart comments/chart.

ZFS vs. NetAPPs WAFL Chart - Chart made for above article.

It looks like the work in the NetAPP whitepaper partially inspired ZFS. Is there anyone who can speak to tradeoffs when it comes to WAFL?

See my user page and email me if you like. The tradeoffs will depend on your application, and whether you'll be using a NetApp filer or not. Zuiram 04:41, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

• Disclaimer; I'm a NetApp employee. There are some inaccuracies (well, quite a few actually) on this page. I'd normally just get editing, but I'm aware of Wikipedia:Npov and Wikipedia:Conflict_of_interest. But I can add a lot from the Wikipedia:Verifiability perspective. So I will make a start on this, but please get back to me (either here or on my talk page) if you feel any of the edits have veered into the unacceptable. Alex (talk) 11:03, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Company Name

Network Appliance name has changed to NetApp. I have updated the article with the new name. --Sandeep346 (talk) 16:41, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
