Wide Area File Services at Globalscape
The overview reads: “GlobalSCAPE WAFS allows end users across multiple offices to access and share files over a WAN at LAN speeds. File replication ensures the same files exist at all locations while real-time file locking keeps users from overwriting files in use. As files are modified, changes are mirrored instantly using intelligent byte-level differencing to minimize the impact on network bandwidth.” Until next issue!
