How does GlobalSCAPE® WAFS handle files that change at multiple sites?
With other systems, accelerating access to static files is straightforward with a simple cache. Protocol acceleration can speed up Web applications, but what happens when the files change at other sites? Cache algorithms do not work, because transmissions occur at the worst possible time—exactly when the user accesses the file. Only GlobalSCAPE WAFS ensures that files open locally, from the local server, every time the files are accessed, no matter how often, where, or when they are changed.
