What are the benefits of using file-sharing protocols in embedded device networks?
File sharing enables multiple devices to remotely browse each other’s shared folders and to read, write, edit, copy, delete and update each other’s files. all operations being done without the need to transfer entire files to/from the device’s local disk or memory. Using file sharing, embedded devices are able to reduce precious and costly storage space requirements as well as speed up response by eliminating the time needed to transfer files. File sharing also enables multiple devices to access and update the same file while preventing conflicts with sophisticated file-sharing and locking semantics. All of the above are fundamental requirement for embedded device networks.
