## Zero OS as generator for Compute, Storage, Network capacity.
### Compute (uses CU)
- [ZKube ](../primitives/compute/zkube.md )
- kubernetes deployment
- [ZMachine ](../primitives/compute/zmachine.md )
- the container or virtual machine running inside ZOS
- [CoreX ](../primitives/compute/corex.md )
- process manager (optional), can be used to get remote access to your zmachine

### There are 4 storage mechanisms which can be used to store your data:
- [ZOS FS ](../storage/zos_fs.md )
- is our dedupe unique filesystem, replaces docker images.
- [ZOS Mount ](../storage/zmount.md )
- is a mounted disk location on SSD, this can be used as faster storage location.
- [Quamtum Safe Filesystem ](../../qsss/qss_filesystem.md )
- this is a super unique storage system, data can never be lost or corrupted. Please be reminded that this storage layer is only meant to be used for secondary storage applications.
- [ZOS Disk ](../storage/zdisk.md )
- a virtual disk technology, only for TFTech OEM partners.
### There are 4 ways how networks can be connected to a Z-Machine.
- [Planetary network ](../network/planetary_network.md ):
- is a planetary scalable network, we have clients for windows, osx, android and iphone.
- [ZOS Net ](../network/znet.md ):
- is a fast end2end encrypted network technology, keep your traffic between your z_machines 100% private.
- [ZOS NIC ](../network/znic.md ):
- connection to a public ipaddress
- [WEB GW ](../network/webgw.md ):
- web gateway, a secure way to allow internet traffic reach your secure Z-Machine.
