Anyone know where to find a deep dive white paper on Windows 2012 R2 DFS?
I currently work for a hedge fund firm and looking into an alternative to DFS. We're currently using Windows 2008 R2 DFS and in process of upgrading all of our Windows servers to 2012 R2.
But, 2008 R2 DFS has shown to have too high of a latency for some of our applications that use DFS shares to read or write. That being said, is DFS protocol in 2012 R2 any different? Can anyone recommend a low-latency distributed file system? Global FS? Luster? How about Windows 2012 R2 DFS over SMB 3.02 direct? Thank you.
