With multiprotocol filing, PCs (1) can store and access data side-by-side with UNIX-based clients, without compromising their respective file attributes, security models, or performance. Users with PC desktops can work within the single instances of their home or project directories, with Windows-based applications executing locally, or UNIX-based applications running on a server. And whether written to the filer via NFS or CIFS, documents can be accessed directly by a wide variety of Web browsers via HTTP.
Multiprotocol filing liberates the data infrastructure, largely freeing it from the constraints of operating system preference or legacy investments. This paper:
describes the NetApp multiprotocol filer architecture
explores the implications of multiprotocol filing for system administrators and end users
reflects the Data ONTAP software for Windows evolution.
