What Highly Available Storage (HAST) is

Highly Available Storage (HAST) is free, on-premises storage software for Linux. It performs block-level replication and supports both listed replication modes, with continuous replication available for ongoing data copying. HAST focuses on replication rather than coordinating what happens during a failure: failover orchestration is not included. Multi-site replication is also not supported. The software has a free plan, and the listed pricing model is free, so there is no paid tier stated here. Its deployment model is on-premises, making it relevant to organizations managing storage in their own environment. Linux is the only listed platform. Buyers considering HAST should therefore focus on whether block replication, continuous operation, and both replication modes meet their requirements, while accounting for the absence of multi-site support and failover orchestration. The project information is provided through the FreeBSD wiki website.

Good

  • Free plan and free pricing model
  • Continuous block-level replication
  • Supports both replication modes
  • On-premises deployment for Linux

Watch out

  • No failover orchestration
  • No multi-site replication
  • Linux is the only listed platform

Who it suits

HAST suits Linux users needing free, on-premises block replication with continuous operation. It is less suitable when multi-site replication or failover orchestration is required.

Verdict

HAST provides a focused, free option for continuous block replication in an on-premises Linux environment. Its missing multi-site replication and failover orchestration are important boundaries to check before choosing it.
