ROSE: Advanced storage in RouterOS

The MikroTik ROSE (RouterOS Enterprise) package adds data center functionality to RouterOS - for supporting disk monitoring, improved formatting, RAID, rsync, iSCSI ,NVMe over TCP, NFS. This functionality currently is supported on arm, arm64, x86 and tile platforms.

This vide is part one in the series.

Would be a dream a Nas solution integrated, out of box configuration

An extra added bonus is that you can mount NFS exports on RouterOS, which is what I've always wanted!

In general, I dont make my CRS520 a NAS. But it is OK to have this function for a NAS model of yours.

I would suggest to let this ne its own module.

-) Base Ethernet Module (classical Router OS)
-) NAS (rose) Module (iSCSI, NFS, SMB, ...)
-) Base Infiniband Module (RoS for IB and not Eth, I still want one :-p)

Because always when I log into my Kubernetes Backbone (also at work), I see Kid Control - this is also a function that enterprises dont use! :-p

Otherwise no hate, just my point of view! :-)

can this actually sustain high transfer speeds, or is it a bit of a mikrotik gimmick, like say running bgp full routes on a hap ?

When does it get support for gunzip?
Still not possible to use in scripting or when importing containers from disk - while it is used when downloding containers...
I have no usb and no space left on the disk

[milados-wy]

Part2 ? Can we use nfs or smb for containers?

[fadodohilario]

Thank you for sharing. Sounds a very good feature. I assume that it does not work with the Audience or the hap ax3 correct?

[msys]

It’s a fun feature but you need to release some specific hardware for it, like a NAS model.

Things I don't want in my router...

Don't put all your eggs in the same basket.
