Wide Area File Sharing Across the WAN

摘要

For companies with remote offices, sharing data in real time between team members at distributed locations has been a challenge. The culprit has been the poor performance and reliability of file-sharing protocols such as NFS and CIFS when used over the WAN. To date, workarounds to the problem have only exacerbated the issues. WAFS technologies have entered the industry to "save the day" by enabling enterprises around the world to share data over the WAN with the same performance, reliability, and peace of mind that they would have over a local area network.
