server environments and infrastructures.

A Distributed File System (DFS) is an application that allows users to access files stored on the server without regard for physical location. When a user accesses a file, it is cached on their system while data is processed and then sent back to the server.

In this edition of WinStorage, from SearchWinComputing.com, Microsoft MVP, Laura E. Hunter, will outline the major advances in the areas of replication and file availability that make DFS more...
