You can now use a Multi-AZ deployment option when creating file systems on Amazon FSx for OpenZFS, making it easy to deploy file storage that spans multiple [AWS Availability Zones](https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/global-infrastructure/regions%5Faz/) (AZs) to support business-critical workloads that require high availability and enhanced durability.
[Amazon FSx for OpenZFS](https://aws.amazon.com/fsx/openzfs/) provides fully managed, cost-effective, shared file storage powered by the popular OpenZFS file system, and is designed to deliver sub-millisecond latencies and up to 10 GB/s of throughput along with rich ZFS-powered data management capabilities (like snapshots, data cloning, and compression). The new Multi-AZ file systems are built with a high-availability pair of file servers (active/passive file servers) spread across AZs. They’re configured to synchronously replicate data across AZs to provide enhanced durability, and are designed to automatically fail over between file servers to provide continuous availability to data in the event that the active file server or even an entire AZ becomes unavailable. With this launch, customers can leverage the power, agility, and simplicity of Amazon FSx for OpenZFS for a broader set of workloads, including business-critical workloads like database, line-of-business (e.g., core banking, retail platforms, semiconductor chip design), and web-serving applications that require highly available shared storage that spans multiple AZs.
[Multi-AZ](https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/global-infrastructure/regions%5Faz/) file systems are available today in the following AWS Regions: US East (Ohio, N. Virginia), US West (Oregon), Europe (Ireland), and Asia Pacific (Tokyo, Singapore).
