ZFS (previously Zettabyte File System) is a file system with volume management capabilities. It began as part of the Sun Microsystems Solaris operating system in 2001. Large parts of Solaris, including ZFS, were published under an open source license as OpenSolaris for around 5 years from 2005 before being placed under a closed source license when Oracle Corporation acquired Sun in 2009–2010.

The ZFS source code was released in 2005 under the Common Development and Distribution License as part of the OpenSolaris operating system, and it was later ported to other operating systems and environments.
This makes it possible for multiple users on multiple machines to share files and storage resources. Distributed file systems differ in their performance, mutability of content, handling of concurrent writes, handling of permanent or temporary loss of nodes or storage, and their policy of storing content.

The z/OS File System (zFS) was released as the higher performance successor to HFS in 1995, and IBM recommended migration from HFS to zFS. Following the release of zFS, z/OS releases included a tool, BPXWH2Z, to convert HFS to zFS. [7] IBM dropped the use of HFS in z/OS 2.5, in 2021. [6]
