ZFS, which is short for Z File System, is an innovative file system that delivers top performance for sites and online apps. One of its key advantages is the real-time checksum comparison - every file features a checksum, or a digital fingerprint, and ZFS compares the checksums of all the files between the several hard drives operating together within a RAID. If any file is corrupted for any reason on one of the drives, it is restored from another drive with the correct checksum. As a result, the integrity of any file saved on a server is guaranteed constantly. ZFS also works considerably quicker than other file systems, that permits backups to be created faster and without slowing down the performance of the whole web server. Also, ZFS does not have a restriction for the total number of files which may be stored on a server while all other file systems have some limit which may cause problems at some point, specifically for script applications that have a large number of files.
